Points to note
If you do not have epilepsy, heart problems or blood pressure, you can hold your breath for a count of four to ten in the final pose.
How it works
The muscular contraction-relaxation has a powerful de-stressing effect.
It works on the carotid sinus and other sinus hollows in the skull. This boosts the nitric oxide levels in the sensitive nasal lining. Nitric oxide not only enhances oxygen absorption but is also a well-known mood-elevator.
Acu-points along the temple and around the eyes (Points 21 to 27) are massaged. Other acu-points along the hairline that de-stress are also worked.
It is a powerful energiser and mood elevator.
It has a toggle effect on blood pressure, spiking it if it is dangerously low, or lowering it when it is unhealthily high.
It is a cure-all pose, meaning it repairs the parts of the entire body that are usually stress-hit.
