The Natural Ventilators For Corona Care
“Prevention is better than Cure”
Care and share the preventive measures of Corona virus/ Covid-19 to all
Himalayan Yoga Academy presents an article on The Natural Ventilators for Corona Care. Our Lungs are our natural Ventilators, nostrils are entry pipelines of natural ventilators and the heart is the computer Monitor of ventilators. Lungs and the heart work hand in hand which means work together in a circular motion. We should know how to cleanse and open these ventilators and also we should know how to ventilate them. By breathing act, we can easily ventilate this. Simply, we do breathe in and out to empower the natural ventilators. Rather than covering and depleting the flow of breath through natural ventilation, we should activate the ventilators and naturalize the mechanism of ventilation. The practical information is given below.
Human Body structural fact
Our body is the temple of ekadashadwara (11 gates) which are ears-2, eyes -2, nostrils-2, mouth -1, navel-1, anus -1, urethra-1, cosmic path -1 which is the 11th gate stands on perpendicular from root perineum to top of the head (Brahmarandha). We should purify all the gates purposed to accelerate our life force or cosmic energy in that temple. We should worship in the temple.
This human body is a combination or structure of Panchamahabhootas (five elements). The human body is the source of diamonds, the values of life. Our life force, prana is running in our body. It is a very natural, universal ventilator made by the almighty, it is not a machine just made by man. This natural ventilator is a living machine that runs on certain mechanisms. This is itself a great scientific system, no scientists can structure it. It always warns and alarms human beings and creatures. But we don’t know this phenomenon. We completely neglected it. When we keep these natural ventilators pure and open, we can update and multiply our capacity and efficiency thousands of times more.
Preparatory phase for Physical Foundation
- Gargle with salty water or herbal water, Jala neti morning and evening, but in the corona period before bed will be better.
- Moderate exercises and Yogasanas.
How to cleanse and revitalize?
The following Swasa kriyas and Pranayamas are the recommended for prevention of COVID-19 and the revitalization of the Immune System.
- Breathe in and out 8 times through the right nostril (Surya nostril/Pingala swara), also called Daya Ekanasikaa Bhastrikaa. Then, breathe in and out 8 times through the left nostril (Moon nostril/Ida swara), known as Baya Ekanasikaa Bhastrikaa. After that, breathe in and out 8 times through both nostrils (Susumna Swara), referred to as Bhastrika Kriya. In between, perform Kapalbhati Kriya to cleanse the waste. Gradually, repeat 2 or more times, aiming for a total of 64 breaths as your target. Ensure the same force and repetition for all steps. Anything beyond this should be practiced under the guidance of a Yoga Master (Guru).
- Gradually, you can progress to Bhastrika Pranayama with Kumbhaka and Bandhas under the supervision of experts. Bhastrika is practiced in three stages: i. Manda – slow pattern, ii. Madhyama – medium pattern, and iii. Tibra – fast pattern.
- Shitalee Swasa Kriya or Shitali Pranayama can be done. E.g. by breathing in through the tongue making a canal tube, to those who cannot fold their tongue, then can do Kaki mudra.
- Surya Anuloma-Viloma (Surya Swasa Kriya) and Chandra Anuloma-Viloma (Chandra Swasa Kriya) serve as preparatory practices (Nadisodhana 1st phase) for Nadi Shodhan Kriya or Nadi Shodhan Pranayama.
- Anuloma Viloma – Alternate Nostril Breath (Nadi Shodhana 2nd phase), breathe in 5 counts and breathe out 7 counts

YOGA FOR NEW GENERATION
Meaning and Definition
What is Yoga for New Generation? Firstly, what is Yoga? The word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit word ‘yuj’ meaning “to unite” and yoga means “Union or Harmony”. Ultimately Yoga is an aim or mission. We reach or achieve via yogic acts (kriyas).
History of Yoga
Yoga originated 15,000 years ago in the Himalayan Belt (Himavat kshetra). Then initially developed in the whole South Asian region (Bharata Khanda). Over time, yoga developed as philosophy, spirituality, psychology, science, and health as well. Yoga has been promoted and developed in different periods of ancient times. It is very essential for the coming generation. It plays a vital role in keeping the new generation healthy, happy, moral, disciplined, creative, visionary, etc.
Aim of Yoga
To get satchittaanaanda – Truth, consciousness, bliss, and liberation
Objectives of yoga
- Activate the muscles and nerves.
- A strong and flexible body free of pain and physical tension.
- Warm up and open the joins.
- A balanced autonomic nervous system with all physical and physiological processes, e.g. Digestion, Respiration, Circulation, Endocrinal secretion
- A calm, clear, and tranquil mind from yoga
- Increase concentration and memory
How it works
Yoga is the easiest way to save the young generation from moving towards violence, suicide, depression, restlessness, etc. When today’s new generation moves towards violence, moves towards suicide, and lives in depression, in such situation yoga will be the easiest way to save them. It also helps to build a better and more beautiful future ahead. It saves genetic degeneration.
Yoga and the Young Generation
We tend to think of yoga as something for adults. Generally, it is a way of increasing overall physical and mental well-being. It includes those who have begun to feel the aches, pains, tension, and stresses that inevitably come with being a grown-up. But yoga can also benefit younger people and any age of people. Ages 7 to 100 years more also can practice yoga because yoga is for all.
Studies have shown that yoga increases working efficiency, creativity, flexibility and overall ability to concentrate and focus. Yoga cherishes inner rest, peace, relaxation, and breathing in a very active way, enabling children to channel their energy into goal-driven tasks.
Yoga can also have an impact on stress management, obesity (also as a part of physical exercise), and better concentration & memory.
Research work on Yoga
Research has shown that educational curricula incorporating stress-management programs improve academic performance, self-esteem, good knowledge, well discipline, morality, social and family relations, classroom behavior, concentration, and emotional balance.
Various individual controlled studies have shown that yoga appears to be a promising complementary therapy and stress-management tool for children, adolescents, and adults with very low reports of adverse effects. Yoga as a therapeutic intervention has positive effects on psychological functioning, especially in children coping with emotional, mental, and behavioral health problems. Yoga deals with good food habits, good sleep, recreation, rest, psycho-counseling, etc.
Additional potential benefits for school-aged children include improved determination, concentration, imagination and self-esteem.
Merits of Yoga for new generation
Scientific and experiential evidence proves many of yoga’s well-established advantages. From physical to mental to spiritual, devoted yogis everywhere race to their mats to reap the rewards.
1. Physical merits
It has been shown that yoga increases flexibility, builds muscles, increases coordination and balance, and improves aerobic endurance in young people. Yoga also improves posture or alignment and can help prevent muscular-skeletal problems from developing over time – something that younger people, who spend much of the day hunched over a desk require as much as older people.
2. Educational merits
Yoga can help teens mentally refocus on the task at hand. By practicing living in the moment on the mat, teenagers can more fully concentrate on the present moment off the mat.
The growth of digital and social media has meant that the average human attention span is on the decline. By providing a tech-free space of physical and mental concentration, however, yoga can help younger people perceptually focus on the task at hand. Young people who practice yoga have even been shown to perform better in tests than those who do not.
3. Mental merits
Yoga’s mental benefits are fairly well documented, and as evidenced by the study mentioned above, teenagers who practice yoga show more positive moods, less anxiety, and depression, and greatly enjoy asana practice.
With the stress and anxiety of exams, placement tests, speeches, and all of the other pressures that plague high school kids today, yoga can be a step in the right direction.
4. Emotional merits
By taking the time to concentrate on the present moment, yoga can also help young people develop deeper emotional intelligence – the ability to identify how they, and others, are feeling. This can help them recognize and deal independently with negative feelings, increasing mental resilience. It can also help them to develop kindness, compassion, and empathy for others.
In addition to connecting you with your emotions, yoga encourages self-love and self-acceptance. This benefit is especially powerful for teens struggling with body image. It’s a beautiful way to learn to love you and appreciate the body for what it is and what it can do, rather than what it looks like. It builds compassion for the self which then radiates to compassion for others.
5. Social merits
Yoga is non-judgmental, and the more we practice, the more acceptance and less judgment we’ll have in our daily lives. Yoga will help teenagers become more compassionate for one another.
Though digital and social media have grown exponentially in recent times, the idea that sitting alone at your desk or behind a screen builds interconnectedness between people is – perhaps – a little optimistic. By doing yoga with others in Physical Exercise, in an afterschool class, or with the rest of the family, yoga can build stronger social bonds between younger and older people and foster togetherness and mutuality.
6. Spiritual merits
Yoga promotes a sense of calmness, inner peace, exploration of energy, cultivation of awareness, a deeper bodily and energetic awareness, good knowledge, and good feelings, removes blocks keeping one from fully experiencing life, opens one to creativity, and healing, improves imagination power, and integration.
