Ich habe Prashant dazu folgendes geschrieben:
Dear Prashant,
Hari om.
For approx two years now I have been practicing my favorite pranayama. It is something that I picked up in a Breathwork session and is based on Wim Hof, the crazy Iceman. I ventilate 27 times, with average speed. Yogic breathing, and then I retain the breath after exhalation: Bahya Kumbhaka.
After some cycles, i can maintain external retention for almost three minutes and it feels great. i can resume normal breathing afterwards without any hassle.
for the past years, i have gained a lot of power and peace from it. i do it very early in the mornings, right after yoga nidra, and i am completely relaxed and ready to take on the challenges of family life.
recently however, i have had a conflict with my wife which affects me a lot and I suddenly have the impression, that this particular breathing practice may be making my inner feelings for this situation worse.
i will be replacing it with a long session of Nadi Shodan starting tomorrow to see if it makes a difference.
Do you have an opinion or advice on this?
kind regards
René
Seine Antwort ist kurz. Ich habe mehr erwartet, eine Art Erläuterung.
Lieber Rene,
Hari Om
Es ist besser, wenn du dich auf Nadi Shodhan und andere Übungen konzentrierst, die in den 300-Stunden-Kurs integriert und eingeplant sind.
Alles Gute

Ich lasse diese Art der Atmung mal weg für eine Weile. Das fühlt sich ja schon auch an wie Kiffen und das hatte letztlich ja auch solch eine Wirkung und ich lasse es seid einer Weile sein.
