SN for Weight Loss (8
Steps)
Each step you have to either inhale or exhale as shown in the video.
Breathing
is either medium breath (Madhyam Swas)
or fast breath ( Khipra Swas). Medium breath is 10 to 12 breath per
minute. One can complete one set in 30 seconds. This includes rest for two
breaths before you start the next round. One should complete at least one set of
12 rounds. Time taken for 12 rounds is 6 minutes. Remember to change your leg
position after each set of 6 SNs.
Slowly
we shall enter into the next stage. Breathing will be faster. No. Of rounds will
be three or more in one minute. We have to do it continuously without rest. You
have the option to open your mouth when you are tired. Here we shall try to
complete 2 sets with 24 SN and it will take a maximum of 7 to 8 minutes. Here also
take care to change your leg position after 6 no. of SNs.
Till
now we have completed 36 SN within 15 minutes.
FreeStyle SN
Here
you forget your breath synchronization with each and every step.
Remember
only breathing out to be matched to sequence no. 2,4,6 and 8. Simply close the
eyes and continue this set for another 6x3=18 SN.
After
completing 54 rounds of SN in just 20minutes, lie down on abdomen with chin
support and rest in makarasan for 5
minutes and savasan for five minutes.
This
