Before you begin your practice, tune-in by chanting the mantra Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo
How to chant the mantra Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo
Sit in Easy Pose with your spine straight. Press your palms together in Prayer Pose at the center of the chest, sides of the thumbs pressed against the sternum. With your eyes closed, focus your concentration at the Third Eye Point located between the eyebrows at the root of the nose, about a half inch under the skin. Inhale deeply and as you exhale chant Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo, on one breath. The sound Dev is chanted a minor third higher than the other sounds. If you cannot chant it all on one breath, take a short breath after Ong Namo. Repeat the mantra three times. The meaning of Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo is: I call on the creative infinite consciousness of the universe. I call on the divine wisdom within me.
The Practice
Posture: Sit in Easy Pose with a straight spine.
Eyes: Close the eyes and focus at the Brow Point.
Breath: Inhale powerfully through the mouth with puckered lips. Exhale powerfully through puckered lips. Use big, fairly fast breaths. Suck the air in so that your cheeks come in a little bit. Then blow it out powerfully.
If you find yourself getting really spaced-out doing this breath technique, stop and do long, slow, deep breathing.
Time
Continue for 2 minutes. Then inhale, exhale and relax the breath.
