What I am trying to learn has to do with a man called Dr. Lin. Is this the same Anal Breathing?

Then I came across your post about it. I will need to try and go back and find it now to see what it was about. It was really interesting to read how it changed how deep you were able to enter into an asana. <br /><br />BTW, I really get a lot from your posts about those little things that can make a difference to your practice. Thanks for sharing and keep them coming.<br /><br />Cheers, Dale.dassocmedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17555512848526290087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8901381958661548366.post-3170429310861457812012-09-16T19:06:20.854+01:002012-09-16T19:06:20.854+01:00Hooray!

I know the old adage of 'if you think you've found mula bandha it probably isn't it'... did that come from Matthew Sweeney? Can't remember... But it takes another breath deeper than I ever thought possible :)<br />Micquihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06805452096378023748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8901381958661548366.post-58130570710763602162012-09-16T16:16:52.384+01:002012-09-16T16:16:52.384+01:00Hello Micqui,

It's definitely a breakthrough. And yes, based on my rather limited experience, I'm pretty sure you have found Mula Bandha :-) But as a few people have pointed out in several places (among them David Garrigues and Thad Haas), mula bandha is a very elusive thing. Very often, just when you think you have "got it", you discover another deeper layer. And then you will probably need to use a different image from breathing through your anus to access mula bandha. But for now at least, I would say that you have found it :-) <br /><br /> <br /> Nobelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00655577410721103577noreply@blogger.com
