Pranayama
The air must be clean, unpolluted, with low humidity and convenient temperature.
To prevent the loss of body balance, hold the knees straight and bend from the lumbar region.
Bandha
When bending the neck like a hook, do not bend the back.
The contraction is maintained only as long as it is comfortable. If there is a tendency to breathe in abruptly and with noise when the abdominal wall is released, this is a sign that you have gone beyond your possibilities.
Preparatory Exercises
Let the neck flexible, meaning that the neck muscles are relaxed during the exercises, especially during the rotations.
