Nauli seems to fail sometimes

Hello frinds,
I have been practing nauli for quiet some time but during winter times it doesnt seem to work properly i mean before when i did nauli i immdeatly had pressure and worked great, but now specially in winter times it fails sometimes :confused:

Hello Sash,

I will speak generally about the topic as I do not know anything of you and your practice. In order to understand “fail” I would have to first understand your intention.

Shat Karmas are not toys or playthings. In fact they are just the opposite, powerful tools. In the hands of masters a powerful tool creates art - in the hands of neophytes they create destruction. Nauli is not advocated for the average person AND it is advised to only be learned from a master after many years of practice.

but i am able to do it with quiet ease and perfection i asked my master( thats some time back) though before starting:-?

Perfect.

Though you’ve still not illuminated us as to your purpose in the doing so as to clarify “fail”.

:eek:

my main purpose of doing it is to [B]clean my stomach[/B] early in the morning and it helped me to build pressure in my stomach for the morning job which makes me feel refresh after the excretory matter gets cleaned

Hello and welcome,
as IA intimates, I am too confused as to what is going on for you.
You say that the nauli is failing.How is it failing? You also state that you can do it with ease and perfection,so I and probably others are not clear about your experience.

ok just tell me what u guys do to clean ur stomach
the main benefits of nauli are
Benefits

  1. Removes constipation, invigorates digestion pressurizes the navel plexes, and help to make retention of breath stable.

  2. Strengthens the abdominal muscles and diaphragm

  3. Massages abdominal viscera, the solar plexus, and the heart and lungs

  4. Increases gastric fire; improves digestion, assimilation, and elimination; and purifies the digestive tract of toxins

  5. Stimulates blood circulation in the abdomen and blood flow to the brain

  6. Stimulates and lifts the energy of the lower belly (apana vayu), to unite it with the energies localized in the navel (samana vayu) and heart (prana vayu).

among these by fail i mean its not able to [B]Remove constipation[/B] in my case that is sometimes and also
it fails [B]too purifies the digestive tract of toxins [/B] sometimes i hope now its clear

Well I do many things to keep the stomach clean,asana for one,shoulerstand rarely fails me, a balanced diet that leads to good evacuation of the bowels.Personally I love coffee in the morning,being kapha it also gives me a kick start,and acts as a laxative for me,it used to be a cigarette,but those days are long gone.
I do understand the benefits and reasons for doing nauli, just didnt understand what your issue was.
If you are constipated,could it be your diet? Cant help you with the toxin issue,what leads you to assume that your toxins are not being released?I ask out of curiosity.
