Uddiana Bandh in Pranayama

After Jalandhara Bandh, second bandh is Uddiar Bandh. This bandh is very useful to awaken the prana and taking it upwards to enter into Sushumna Nadi. Sit in any yogic posture, either in padmaasana, or sukhasana keeping your palms on your knees. Breathe out completly and release the muscles of your stomach. Stretch your chest slightly upwards and try to push the stomach back, so that it touches the spine on your hind. Maintain this position as long as you can. then, breathe in , rest for sometime and repeat this exercise again. Try to do this Bandha for three times only. Gradually, this number can be taken to around 10/15 times over a period of 2 months.

This Bandh cures all diseases pertaining to stomach and all the organs of digestive system. It also cures constipation completly within a period of around 2 weeks of doing this Bandha. You will start feeling light and energised fully if you perform this bandha regularly.
