Pranayama to improve skin

Please advise if pranayama helps in making you fair; scar free skin.

One of our facebook friends asked this question. Here are some replies - do you have any other ideas to add to this?


Jeff: Yes, especially combined with purifying asana practice, pranayama can powerfully eliminate the toxins that produce stress-symptoms like acne. Scarring is probably another matter - namaste!


Richa: Thanks Jeff .Can u tell me in how many days results can be seen..



Jeff: one student of mine has seen results in as few as two weeks of intense practice - bikram (which i do not necessarily recommend) or ashtanga (be careful, you can injure) work very quickly. But as the great sage said, *make haste slowly,* and most importantly, you are PERFECT THE WAY YOU ARE.


Ritu: haa it can enhance ur complextnn as d blood cirulation goes whille dng brethnn exercises!!



Nitin: What is d use of fair skin:-P?



Sumant: Fair..Definitely yes! It gives a nice n natural glow for sure! Scar free skin..ain't sure!



Harte: Yes it does...also practice Cobra....



Anil: Pranayama (specially kapalabathi & bastrika) makes face glow bcoz of better flow of prana or to put it simply better blood circulation. Not sure about the color change, haven't seen a dark skinned face turning fair while practicing pranayama:)




Shailendra: Yes Richa, pranayam does improve the health of skin. You can do Kapal Bhati and Bhramari.

Add to it Vaman Dhauti fortnightly and you will glow :-)

A short meditation will help you shine at all levels of your existence i.e. physical, vital, me...ntal and spiritual.



Julia: Pls how to do yoga Pranayama. sounds good to do. Thanks.



Shailendra: Julia... It sure makes life more enjoyable. It is a good idea to find a Yoga teacher. Videos are available on the internet also.



Sarala: If you are new to yoga better to attend classes of yoga..
