Benefits:
• Stress Reduction:
The slow exhalation and humming sound activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes relaxation and counters the effects of stress. This can help reduce anxiety, tension, and overall stress levels.
• Calming the mind:
The focused awareness on the humming sound and the vibrations created during Brahmari Pranayama can help calm a busy or restless mind. It can promote mental clarity, concentration, and a sense of inner peace.
• Alleviating tension and headaches:
The vibrations generated by the humming sound can have a soothing effect on the head and face, helping to release tension and potentially relieving headaches or migraines.
• Blood pressure regulation:
Practicing Brahmari Pranayama in a slow and controlled manner can have a positive impact on blood pressure regulation, helping to lower high blood pressure and promote cardiovascular health.
• Vocal and throat Health:
Regular practice of Brahmari Pranayama can help improve vocal quality, strengthen the vocal cords, and promote overall throat health.
