Hello Anmol, I really liked your breath of fire video. How often should one practice breath of fire? Thanks, La Vonne

Glad to know you enjoyed the video. It was our first so am happy it has come across well.
Great question too :-). The article Breath of Fire Breathing Exercise has these details, but I will summarize quickly below.
If you are doing a set such as the Kundalini Yoga Morning Wake Up Series, it has Breath of Fire built in so you don’t need to practice extra, but if you are doing Breath of Fire as a separate exercise I suggest to start gently and build up to 1 minute per day.
From there you can increase to 3, 5 and even 11 mins at a stretch. Remember not to overdo it and only move forward when you can do so without excessive strain. You can also take breaks in between and then continue when ready.
Breath of Fire is great to use right before a set to get your energy going. 2 minutes is perfect for that.
Let me know if you run across any issues.
All Good Wishes,
Anmol

Great to have your presence and participation here on Mastery of Meditation.
Am glad you enjoyed the pranayama video. Yes, Breath of Fire is very effective in raising the internal heat, which is one of the reasons why it’s a great pranayama for detoxification as well.
Happy to share my knowledge.
All Good Wishes,

Yes, it is normal to sweat during Breath of Fire. If you have high blood pressure or suffer from acid/heat related stomach issues, then you need to only do this pranayama lightly.
You should not eat at least 2-3 hours prior to doing Breath of Fire. Specially not a big meal, a small snack is ok.
You should sip water as required during the yoga practice, but afterwards you should drink plenty of water. This is because the kundalini yoga sets and pranayamas are designed to detoxify your system, and the toxins that are released from deep within your tissues need to be flushed out of your system after the set. So drink plenty of water after you are done with your practice.

Keep Going!
