Overview

Kunjal Kriya is a yogic technique used in Indian Ayurvedic System to detoxify the body. It has numerous amazing health benefits. It is also known as Vaman Dhauti. 

What is Kunjal Kriya?

Kunjal is the Sanskrit word for "sour gruel", while kriya is "an act" or "activity". One of the best methods for cleansing the stomach is Kunjal Kriya.

The kunjal kriya eliminates food particles that have not been fully or completely digested, termed ama in Ayurveda. 

It is thought that getting rid of this food from the stomach and upper digestive tract prevents toxins from building up.

This exercise is thought to promote general health by clearing the body's energy channels or nadis, to permit the free flow of prana (life force energy). The following conditions are also thought to be alleviated or prevented by it:

  • Digestive issues such as bloating, indigestion, nausea, and others

Why is Kunjal Kriya important to you?

Acidity, indigestion, gas, and other issues with digestion are common among modern people. 

There is a reason for it. 

The meal stays in the stomach for some time after being consumed. It is combined with digestive juice in the stomach so that it can be easily absorbed into the intestines. 

However, minute food fragments are still undigested in the stomach lining. Until our subsequent meal, these particles remain there. 

These particles interact with fresh food when we eat another meal, which can pollute and poison the system and cause acidity. 

We can eliminate these minute particles from the stomach lining with the use of Kunjal Kriya.

Precautions for doing Kunjal Kriya:

It would be great if you performed this exercise on an empty stomach first thing in the morning.

You could do it once each week for overall health. However, you can perform Kunjal Kriya whenever you experience intestinal discomfort.

Avoid using this method if you have low or high blood pressure, cardiac issues, ulcers, or stomach hernias.

Make sure your nails are clean and not too sharp before sticking your fingers inside the mouth.

After performing Kunjal, it is advisable to perform Jala Neti, or nose cleaning.

For 30 minutes, refrain from eating.
