The Benefits of Tantra Breathing Techniques

The techniques of Tantra breathing form the most esoteric part of the art of tantra. Vamana Muni formulated a unique system of breathing, which is also evident in the asanas prescribed by Rishi Patanjali.

Tattva breathing (or engaging in breath-centric postures) requires the practice of several tantric positions within related breathing norms. This Tantra breathing technique is marginally similar to ujayyi pranayama, where the word 'ujayyi' means 'triumphant'. It produces intense body heat and makes one sweat profusely. It stimulates our organs and has a purifying, detoxifying effect on them.

Significantly, this breathing technique also encourages the release of endorphins (or 'happy chemicals') and nutrients, and brings about wellbeing and contentment. It also assist in effective blood circulation, resulting in sublimated blood, a strong body and a sound mind.

There is a specific chronological sequence to abide by when practicing this Tantra tattva breathing. Your tantra teacher will instruct you in gradually progressing from one sequence of these dynamic tantra positions to the next.

Tantric yamas and niyamas detoxify and align our body, purging us entirely of toxins. Tantra sadhana sublimates our nervous system by opening and clearing up the chakras, allowing energy to flow more easily. Tantra tattva mudras incorporate the grace and staying power of this breathing practice to promote flexibility.

Tattva breathing is an intense and demanding exercise, but it is worth the effort - this breathing technique assures us deep peace of mind and fulfillment.

As always, ensure that you engage in these tantra techniques only under the guidance of an authentic tantra teacher. Practicing tantra exercises without expert supervision is counter-productive and often harmful.
