Bhramari
differs from the usual mouth snoring in that
the lips are closed and vibrations of the
soft palate are caused entirely by nasal
airflow. Practice mouth snoring first in
order to develop some voluntary control over
the palate vibration process. Nasal snoring
is more difficult. Approach control attempts
gradually.
The soft
palate must be lifted toward the top of the
pharynx sufficiently to produced flutter
which may be very hard to control. The sound
produced is commonly described as being like
the buzzing of a bee. Although, in bhramari,
one breathes both in and out through both
nostrils and produces a snoring, buzzing or
humming sound in both directions, expect
somewhat different sounds from inhaling,
which has a higher pitch, than from
exhaling, which has a lower pitch.
Bhramari
is customarily described as involving rapid
inhalation producing a high humming sound
like that of a male bee and slow exhalation
producing a low humming sound like that of a
female bee. |
