Find out what bandhas are and how they can help you to go deeper in your yoga and meditation practice. Learn about the 4 different types of bandhas. Finally, see what the specific benefits of Mula Bandha are and how you can practice it.
Understanding Bandhas:
In Sanskrit, the term Bandha means to lock, to hold, or to tighten. Bandhas are traditionally used in Hatha yoga to control and open flow of Prana in the body. Prana circulated in the body is responsible for the manifestation of past impressions, latent desires, emotions, etc., through the mind. Blocks in Prana negatively reflects your state of mind and clarity. There are four types of bandhas: jalandhara, moola, uddiyana and Maha Bandha. These locks are used to direct the flow of Prana to the sushumna nadi which will open the chakras and awaken kundalini. The practice of Bandhas allows the yogi to advance to higher spiritual realms by accessing psychic energies. Bandhas can either be used separately or in conjunction with mudra and pranayama techniques. Bandhas are included in both mudras and pranayama techniques. Usually bandhas are practiced separately or along with the mudras or pranayama practices. This practice enables the psychic energies so that the yogi advances to the higher realms. The practice of bandhas is to prevent and revert or redirect the flow of prana through the sushumna nadi so as to awaken the chakras, which results in the awakening of kundalini. There are four types of bandhas: jalandhara, moola, uddiyana and Maha Bandha.
There Are 4 Types of Bandhas:
1. Mula Bandha (Perineum muscular lock plus sphincter muscular lock)
2. Uddiyana Bandha (Upward Abdominal Lock)
3. Jalandhara Bandha (Net-Bearer Bond)
4. Maha Bandha (Practice Of All Three Bandhas At The Same Time)
Mula Bandha:
