Follow these five steps slowly each morning before breakfast or pranayama:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Step 1 \u2014 Prepare Strictly Sterile, Lukewarm Water:<\/strong> Never use unboiled tap water directly from a sink. Fill your neti pot with distilled water, sterile bottled water, or tap water that has been boiled cleanly and cooled down to gentle body temperature (comfortable on your inner wrist\u2014neither hot nor cold).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Step 2 \u2014 Dissolve Pure Non-Iodized Salt to Isotonic Ratio:<\/strong> Stir roughly half a level teaspoon of clean, non-iodized fine salt per 250\u2013300 ml pot until completely dissolved. Plain unsalted water irritates delicate nasal membranes, while overly salty water causes stinging\u2014testing a drop shows a mild, tear-like salinity.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Step 3 \u2014 Lean Over the Basin &amp; Tilt Your Head Gently:<\/strong> Stand comfortably over a sink or grassy garden patch, leaning your torso forward about 45 degrees. Insert the spout snugly into the upper nostril, tilt your chin slightly down while angling the opposite ear toward the ground, and breathe steadily through a gently open mouth.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Step 4 \u2014 Allow Gravity to Flow Through &amp; Switch Sides:<\/strong> Keep both cheeks relaxed rather than sniffing inward. Let half the pot flow smoothly out the lower nostril in 20\u201330 seconds, pause, switch hands, tilt toward the other side, and empty the remaining saline cleanly through the opposite passage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Step 5 \u2014 Dry Passages with Gentle Exhalations Only:<\/strong> Stand slightly bent forward and exhale gently through both nostrils individually\u2014using light <em>Kapalbhati<\/em>-style bursts with zero straining\u2014turning the head lightly side to side to clear trapped droplets. <strong>Crucial safety rule:<\/strong> never pinch both nostrils shut and blow hard, as air pressure forces saline into the Eustachian tubes toward the middle ear.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Understanding_Kunjal_Nauli_Laghu_Shankh_Prakshalana\"><\/span>Understanding Kunjal, Nauli &amp; Laghu Shankh Prakshalana<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Beyond daily nasal hygiene, intermediate and advanced yoga teacher training students encounter deeper digestive and energetic cleansings inside our Klungkung curriculum:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Kunjal Kriya (Vamana Dhauti):<\/strong> Practiced early morning on a completely empty stomach with warm mildly salted water, Kunjal gently clears lingering gastric mucus and acidity under instructor guidance. Because stimulating a gag reflex places temporary pressure on the diaphragm and blood vessels, it is practiced sparingly and skipped entirely by anyone with hypertension, cardiac issues, ulcers, or hernia.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Agnisar &amp; Nauli Kriya:<\/strong> Introduced inside our 25-day <a href=\"\/300-hour-yoga-teacher-training-in-bali\">300 Hour YTT<\/a>, Agnisar flaps the relaxed abdominal wall backward and forward during an empty breath-out retention (<em>bahya kumbhaka<\/em>), laying the neuromuscular foundation for <em>Nauli<\/em>\u2014the controlled isolation and rolling of the rectus abdominis muscles to massage digestive viscera.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shankha Prakshalana &amp; Laghu Variations:<\/strong> Full <em>Shankha Prakshalana<\/em> pairs warm saline water with five specific dynamic postures (<em>Tadasana, Tiryaka Tadasana, Kati Chakrasana, Tiryaka Bhujangasana, Udarakarshanasana<\/em>) to flush the digestive tract like water rinsing a conch shell (<em>shankha<\/em>).
