FULL MOON IN LEO
BREATH OF FIRE WITH LION’S PAWS
Reset the Brain’s Electromagnetic Field
Tune In: Chant “Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo” x 3
Sitting make both hands into Lion’s Paws: curl and tighten the fingers of each hand. Keep the tension in the hands throughout the exercise. Start with both arms out to the sides, parallel to the ground with the palms up. Then bring both arms up over the head so that the hands pass each other over the crown of the head. The elbows bend and the palms face down. Then bring the hands back down as you extend the arms out parallel to the ground again. Alternate which wrist is in front when they cross by each other over the head with a fast-paced rhythmic motion. Create a powerful breath with the motion of the arms. The breath is an inhale as the arms extend and an exhale as the arms cross over the head. The breath becomes a steady Breath of Fire.
Time: Continue for 9 minutes.
To End: Without breaking the pace of the exercise, stick the tongue out and down all the way. Continue for 15 seconds more. Then inhale, bring in the tongue and fix the arms at 60 degrees, so that they form an arc around the head with the palms facing down about six inches apart over the head. The hands are still in Lion’s Paws. Hold the breath for 15 seconds. Keep the arms fixed as you exhale and inhale completely. Then hold the breath for 30 seconds.
Relax and let the arms down. Meditate at the Heart Center. Follow the gentle flow of the breath. Chant an inspiring and uplifting song.
Continue for 3-5 minutes.
