Technique
Kapalbhati (Skull-Shining Breath)
A rapid, forceful-exhale / passive-inhale pattern used to prime the nervous system before other breathwork or to activate the body — a breath-of-fire style technique.
Do not practice without guidance if:
- Pregnancy or nursing
- Heart or cardiovascular condition (incl. high blood pressure)
- Epilepsy or seizure history
How
Seated with a tall spine: pump short, active exhales out through the nose while letting the inhale happen passively between pumps. Start with short rounds and build gradually.
