Breathing Exercise (Pranayama) - Jalandhara Bandha

This Jalandhara Bandha involves stopping air through pressing your chin on your chest.

Jalandhara Bandha (Chin)

The Jalandhara Bandha or "chin lock" consists in pressing the chin close to the chest and dropping the head to help in maintaining immobility of muscle and air movements. This position is very useful in holding an Empty Pause, for the pressure of the chin against the chest pushes the base of the tongue and the larynx up into the pharynx and against the palate, thus providing aid in resisting the pressure caused by the vacuum in the Lung.
