Can yoga help premature ejaculation? Well, very probably.
Yoga for premature ejaculation is indeed an unusual approach to this problem.
Yoga has proved to be very effective in the treatment of many impossible and incurable diseases, however, the therapeutic effect of yoga is a byproduct. Yoga promotes a healthier body and mind and often just balancing the body will give wonderful results with often long standing and chronic problems.
Problems related to premature ejaculation can very well be handled with yoga as most often they are more related to the mind than body. They are often caused by lack of confidence or stress, fatigue or fear and very rarely is there a physical cause.
To treat PE, try using the following two breathing exercises and take up some regular meditation if you can.
Breathing Exercises or Pranayama
These should be done in a quiet spot where you can focus and concentrate without being disturbed.
1. The Three Step breathing technique
Also called the complete breath, the benefits of it are that it promotes proper diaphragmatic breathing, relaxes the mind and body, detoxifies the lungs of residual carbon dioxide and oxygenates the blood.
-Sit with your spine erect, or lie down on your back. Begin by taking long, slow, and deep breaths through the nostrils, inhaling in and out.
-Inhale, allowing the stomach to fill with air, drawing air deep into the lower lungs.
Then exhale,and as you do so, allow your stomach to deflate like a balloon. Practice doing this several times.
-Next breathe as above, but also expand the mid-chest region by allowing the rib cage to open outward to the sides. Exhale and repeat this several times including both the above steps.
-Now next time you breathe in, after expanding the mid-chest region, continue inhaling by opening the upper-chest area. Exhale and repeat the whole sequence.
These three steps should be done in one continuous or complete flow hence it's name the three step breathing.
Do this for about 7 minutes.
2. The Alternate breathing technique
The benefits of alternate nostril breathing is that it calms the mind, soothes anxiety and stress, promotes clear thinking and balances the left and right hemispheres of the brain.
The complete sequence for one round of alternate breathing is as follows:
- Inhale through the right nostril and exhale through the left
- Inhale through the left and exhale through the right
Continue for about 10 minutes. Try and do these breathing exercises at least once a day and preferably twice a day and drink plenty of water too.
Hopefully this should help balance your body and mind and thus help your premature ejaculation.
