no edit summary
*After completing practice of bhramari pranayama, inhale, then do [[Savasana]].
'''NOTE''':
Kumbhakas can be attempted, wrapping cloth round the head with jalandhara bandha in all the other pranayamas.
'''EFFECTS''':
The humming sound induces sleep and is good for persons suffering from insomnia.
'''MURCHHA PRANAYAMA.''':
Murchha means a state of woon. This pranayama is done as in ujjayi and the internal retention is held till faintnes is felt. It makes the mind inactive and brings sensual tranquillity.
'''PLAVINI PRANAYAMA''':
Palvani means swimming or floating. Very little is known of this pranayama. It is said to help the sadhaka to float on water with ease.
Murchha and palvini pranayama are no longer in vogue.
