Lockdown, 6th April

 LOCKDOWN 13

Dear diary, 

Today I will share the experience of kapalbhati. Kapal meaning forehead and bhati meaning shining. This is one of the method of pranayam breathing techniques. It is also considered as shuddhikriya as it helps to remove toxins from our bodies. First sit in any dhyanatmaka asana then put your hand on your knees in dronmudra. Your spine should be straight. Then take a deep breath in and exhale continuously. While exhaling automatically you breathe in. You should breathe out 2 counts in 1 second. Means 120 strokes in minutes. This is for normal person. The person above 40 or any problem can breathe out 1 stroke for 1 second. 

Kapalbhati should be avoided by a person having high blood pressure, low blood pressure, heart problem, ulcer etc. 

Kapalbhati helps to remove toxins from the body, it is good to improve metabolism, to reduce anxiety and depression, for glowing skin, to reduce dark circles under eye etc. 

Today I wrote one marathi poem for another website. I watched Netflix movie bird box which is based on suicide. The people who saw something wished to do suicide. Most of the people in this movie do suicide. The actress who saved herself with her two children by using a blindfold and leaving that place by using blindfold by facing obstacles in her way.
