Isha Kriya was developed by the Indian yogi and mystic, Sadhguru.

How to do it:

  1. Find a quiet and comfortable place to sit, with your spine upright and your head and neck aligned with your spine.
  2. Place your hands on your thighs & close your eyes.
  3. Begin to breathe in & mentally say the mantra "I am not the body.”
  4. As you exhale, mentally say “I am not even the mind" silently to yourself, as you continue to focus on your breath.
  5. Repeat the mantra as long as you’re comfortable with.
  6. If your mind begins to wander, gently bring your attention back to the mantra and continue to repeat it.
  7. Next you will utter the sound “Ahhh” 7 times when you exhale with your mouth wide open.
  8. After, simply sit in stillness, continuing to focus on your breath and any sensations in your body.
  9. When you are ready, slowly open your eyes and return to the external world.
