[Music] means connection or log maybe you're familiar with the term mulat chakra the root chakra mula is the root adhara means support or the base so it's the support the base on the root of the spine mullet you just need to contract the area around the private parts the perineum muscle there's three different muller bonders the first one would be the front one where you contract the genitals like if you have to urinate but you try to hold it back the second one would be the back one the anus like you have to pass stool but you hold it back and the third one is between genitals and anus the perineum muscle and in this video we will focus on the middle one on the perineum muscle there's also an active and a passive way to perform mullabander so the passive way would be you sit on a heel and you put it on the perineum muscle like this like slightly a small touch and then you hold siddhasana this would be already an activation or you can put a tennis ball or a sock it's also fine in this video we're going to focus on the active mullabander there's also four different types so the first would be you hold mullabanda during the whole pranayama session second one you hold mullabanda only with the inhalation during the breath fold and as soon as you exhale you let go of the mulabanda before the exhalation you let go the third one would be that you only apply muller bundle during breathford this that is the one i prefer usually i use it during the prefold it's also a great way to use it doing meditation to just sit down and contract mulabanda and focus on the nadi on the subtle energy channel along your spine how the energy goes all the way to your third eye you can also meditate about it it's very powerful and it also draws all the energy from the root from the earth and gives you all the energies you need so whenever you feel tired lack of energy you can just apply mulabander and the fourth one would be that you're with me kelly contract mulabanda contract let's
