Jala Neti

[Jala Neti]

Jala Neti is a simple but effective process of cleansing the nasal passages with salt water using a copper jala neti pot designed by Sadhguru. The process makes breathing easier by helping air enter the lungs unimpeded by mucus and dirt which easily builds up during the day.

‘Keeping your sinuses well-balanced and maintaining free movement within them is very important. How do we achieve this? You could do jala neti to reduce the mucus in the system. But this practice has to be properly imparted.’

Spiritual Significance

Practices in Yoga
Keeping your sinuses well-balanced and maintaining free movement within them is very important. How do we achieve this? If you are effectively doing kapalabhati [part of Shakti Chalana Kriya as taught in the Shoonya Intensive program] for a period of time, it will establish this balance. If you want a preparatory step, you could do jala neti to reduce the mucus in the system.
