Cautions
Stop if you feel dizzy, strained, or short of breath. Practice gently and return to natural breathing if discomfort arises.
Entering Breath of Fire
Sit upright with the spine long. Begin quick active exhales through the nose by pumping the lower belly in. Allow each inhale to happen automatically between the exhales. Stay with an easy rhythm and stop before the breath feels forced.
Exiting Breath of Fire
Stop the pumping action in the belly. Take one or two easy natural breaths and rest before continuing. Pause for a moment and notice how the breath feels before moving on.
