ANSWER: Yoga
 
  • Bhastrika is a unique concept to cleanse the body, prana (breath), and elevate the soul to different level of consciousness.
  • It is sometimes treated as a kriya or 'cleansing action' along with kapalabhati to clear the airways in preparation for other pranayama techniques.
  • Bhastrika involves a rapid and forceful inhalation and exhalation powered by the movement of the diaphragm. The movement of air is accompanied by an audible sound. One inhale and exhale equals one round of bhastrika and it may be repeated for many consecutive rounds.
