Udana Vayu

Print

Udana vayu is located in the throat region and is the channel for supra-physical planes.

This form of prana is responsible for expression through speech.

It is the upward moving energy.

In kundalini yoga, this vayu plays a major role in transforming the inherent energy from one chakra to another.

It is the natural psychic force, which separates the astral body from the physical.

Advanced yogic practices like jalandhara bandha, halasana, sarvangasana and dhauti kriyas help to balance the udana vayu.
