Hold this position as long as you are comfortable. Remember that the breath is held inside. Beginners should hold the breath for just a few seconds. Later it can be increased to a minute or more depending on your capacity.
To release the lock bend the arms, raise your head and exhale out. Come back to the straight position and take a few normal breaths.
Repeat the process as many times as you feel comfortable.
Benefits
It stimulates the thyroid and the para thyroid glands. Thus regulates the body metabolism.
Jalandhara Bandha helps to activate the throat (Vishudhi) chakra.
It prevents the Prana Shakti from moving upwards.
It increases the blood flow in the brain.
Jalandhara Bandha is one of the three yogic locks that have to be mastered before attempting the Maha Bandha or the triple lock.
Precautions
Avoid in high or low blood pressure, heart diseases.
Avoid in stiffness of neck, cervical spondylitis & spondylosis.
Never force your chin to touch the notch/pit of sternum.
Uddiyana Bandha- The Flying Up Lock
The word Uddiyana in Sanskrit means - to fly up, or to rise up. This ‘flying up lock’ means- flying upwards of one’s internal energy i.e. Prana.
Method
Sit erect in any meditative asan and keep your palms on the knees. Relax whole body by closing the eyes.
Inhale slowly and gradually then exhale completely so that abdomen moves inwards as much as possible with one breath.
Then perform Jalandar bandha.
Upper abdomen moves inwards underneath the rib cage with chest moving outwards is called Uddiyana bandha.

Mudra means “gesture or attitude”
A mudra may involve the whole body in a combination of asana, pranayama, bandha and visualization technique.
Define as “ Mudam anandam dadati iti mudra” means the actions that gives us pleasure, bliss is called mudra.
Mudra denotes the sense of evoking a hidden power or uniting with something large.
In hatha yoga, mudras are used in conjunction with pranayama (yogic breathing exercises), generally while in a seated posture, to stimulate different parts of the body involved with breathing and to affect the flow of prana, bindu, boddhicitta, amrita or consciousness in the body.

Microteaching is a unique model of practice teaching. It is a viable instrument for the. desired change in the teaching behavior or the behavior potential which, in specified types of real. classroom situations, tends to facilitate the achievement of specified types of objectives.
These simplified slides by Dr. Sidra Arshad present an overview of the non-respiratory functions of the respiratory tract.
Learning objectives:
1. Enlist the non-respiratory functions of the respiratory tract
2. Briefly explain how these functions are carried out
3. Discuss the significance of dead space
4. Differentiate between minute ventilation and alveolar ventilation
5. Describe the cough and sneeze reflexes

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
