What is Kunjar Kriya?

Kunjar Kriya is a yogic purification technique. It helps in cleansing the body from the inside. It is performed early in the morning on an empty stomach. It solves problems related to digestion like acidity, indigestion, gas and more. By practising this kriya, one can easily remove tiny particles of toxic undigested food from the stomach lining.

To know the steps to follow this routine, one can always connect with a nutritionist or a yoga practitioner and know all the details.

Benefits of Kunjar Kriya:

Kunjar Kriya is a great detox and cleansing technique. It helps in removing all the toxins created in our body. The biggest benefit of this technique is it improves the strength of the entire digestive system. It also helps in clearing excess mucus in the respiratory system, which is why this kriya is often recommended to asthma patients.
