Time: 15 minutes, or as long as it feels right.

How To Do This Practice:

1. Inhale slowly and deeply through your nose for 3-4 seconds.

2. Exhale for 6-8 seconds, making a gentle humming sound (like a buzzing bee) as you breathe out.

3. Adjust the timing of your inhale and exhale to find a rhythm that feels comfortable for you.

4. Continue the practice for as long as feels right, focusing on the sound and sensation of your breath.

Note: This version of Bhramari Pranayama, practiced without specific gestures (mudras), was studied by Dr. Gunjan Trivedi.
