Stage 3: Dakshina Nauli (right isolation)
After completing vama nauli, practise the same way but on the right side.
Follow the instructions for madhyama nauli to the point where the lower abdomen is contracted and the rectus abdominii muscles form a central, vertical arch down the abdomen.
Isolate the rectus abdominii muscles at the right side. Hold the contraction as tightly as possible while retaining the breath.
Do not strain.
Return to madhyama nauli.
Release the abdominal contraction, raise the head and return to the upright position.
Inhale slowly and deeply, allowing the abdomen to expand. This is one round.
Relax in the upright position until the heartbeat returns to normal.
Proceed to abdominal rotation or churning only after perfecting this practice.
