How to create cooling effect in the body

Dear friends,
Body has to have a balance in temperature else it could have adverse effects. There are instances when we feel that the body is too hot and it would have better if we could do some cooling exercise.

Normally this is not know to many except for the yoga students who can up the body heat and also reduce it. I'm not taking about experts, my hints and tips are for the common "Man" who should leave a healthy life -


How to create cooling effect in the body

Open the moth, put out the tongue and inhale air through the mouth. Close the mouth and retain the air as much as possible. Then exhale through the nose. Repeat 15/25 times. You will immediately feel cool. This method is called Sheetli in Yoga and found to be useful in summer, sunstroke, fever or whenever cooling effect is necessary.

Regular practice of pranayam and breathing exercises will ensure proper oxygenation of all the parts of the body and cure many diseases. Proper oxygenation helps in purifying the blood and removal of toxins and carbon dioxide from the body. This, in turn, will reduce the unnecessary burden on kidney reducing the possibility of skin diseases and failure of kindey. Moreover, pure blood enables proper functioning of all the organs and thereby increases vigour and vitality.
