Flood the body with Nitric Oxide every morning

After months of an uninterrupted, continuous practice of Anuloma Viloma, the body becomes flooded with nasal nitric oxide every morning at every practice. This stage produces dramatic results and the process speeds up from this point. 

When a big release happens, it smells like clean air. It is a decongestant. Your head clears up and the sinus cavities drain and are wide open. Nitric Oxide cleans the blood that goes straight to your brain. It expands, clears and repairs the arteries and capillaries. Nitric Oxide speeds up synaptic transmissions. It opens the bronchioles allowing you to breathe more deeply. Nitric Oxide plays a role all over the body in the heart, brain, gut and genitals. 

There are many distinct signs of Nitric Oxide being released. The breath slows down. The heart slows down. A generalized sense of wellbeing and relaxation happens throughout the body. Eyesight will temporarily get very blurry. The mind gets clear and sharp. Lots of blood flow to the genitals is a given. There is a distinct feeling of becoming “clean” inside the body. And then things get really interesting at that point.

Nitric Oxide is only one of the underlying mechanisms of what happens in praanaayaama. Praanaayaama in large quantities leads to the activation of the pituitary. The pituitary stimulation leads to the release of painkillers, dopamine, and endocannabinoids that have been already measured in research. From anecdotal evidence, it is very likely that oxytocin, human growth hormone, ATCH, gonadatropins, and many other hormones are similarly activated.

Everyone who has dedicated themselves to This Next Breath practice has reported that "Meditation has never been so good, after a long praanaayaama session." Hmmmm.

Praanaayaama is where aasana practice goes. Are you ready? Now is a good time to start a dedicated praanaayaama practice for real. To begin: https://thisnextbreath.podia.com
