Mula Bandha…simple, straightforward, practical advice

0
Quote from Ramaswami on Mula Bandha…makes sense. I follow this advice and I’m pretty sure I have mula and uddiyana banhda’s engaged…not in pasmasana though…Dandasana or any asana will do.

So follow this simple practical advice and you will be sure to engage your lower bandha’s…simple as!

“… Now in the same pose (pasmasana), after a complete exhalation, if you contract the glutei (rectum), and pull up the pelvic floor, you will be doing Mula bandha. Then, if in a continuous motion, you draw the abdomen inward and backward, you have the two bandhas, mula and uddiyana. by raising the pelvic floor in mula bandha, you are able to pull up the hip joint from inside. With the hip joint freed, it becomes, it becomes easier to keep the back erect and do jalahandra bandha by stretching the cervical spine.” (p148)
