Great video! Your video is probably the easiest to understand of all the ones I have watched. I have a much better understanding of the steps after watching and I am grateful. Thank you for the great instruction.
Thank you for introducing this technique! When I meditate I use a simple technique, which also produces heat in me. Maybe I will combine both, because I didn't use the root lock. First when doing any practice, I do be fully aware of my body and its reaction. I did learn to use a full body scan from Mas Sajady (I recommend him). It is basically like a CT scan. When I breath in (same as you do, maybe count 4) then I hold the breath long. And I realize energy is flowing in my body, changing the state to hot and then to cold (sometimes reverse, I didn't figured out yet if focus is relevant, but I focus always on my body, often spine or chest). So depending how long you hold, a heat wave comes which then changes after some seconds into a cold wave.) I feel it in the upper back, but it is distributing around the body. In that wave (if you want hot then during the hot wave) I slowly breath out to the mouth (count 20 or more, you can experiment) Then hold some seconds and start again for lets say 5 times. There is no hurry between the "rounds", you also can breath normally between for some cycles. So after this I am really warm/hot. For me it cleans also my lungs and nose. I need to swallow often, mostly when I did drink less or made no sport. You mentioned Tummo breathing with two channels. There is a channel in front of the spine and I think one inside or behind. These could be the channels to imagine the energy is flowing through. The channel in the spine goes up (breath in) and in front of the spine (towards the navel) goes down (breath out). you can imagine the energy flows around the skull. There is a book TAO YOGA from Mantak Chia (in German "Tao Yoga: Praxisbuch zur Erweckung der heilenden Urkraft Chi" or in English "Awaken Healing Energy Through The Tao: The Taoist Secret of Circulating Internal Power") which describes a similar technique. However I find it best to experiment and watch for inner changes. So one can adapt that what works and can forget about the rest :) cheap if buyed used from used book re-seller.
23-feb-2021 #morning_breathing, thank you ❤️ tummo Tim! 🙏 I have notices in the end of my meditations or breathing in lotuts position, when I put the chin on my chest and strech my spine, I gets uncomfortable stretchy feeling on hips for a few seconds and after some 10-15 seconds, it peaks and then the ultimate release comes and everything feels awesome.
Thanks Tim, your explanation is amazing! I would like to incorporate Uddiyana Bhanda practice into my morning breathwork. I was thinking of doing tummo the way you taught us, then after the retention breathe out really slowly and, once the lungs are empty, hold Uddiyana Bhanda as long as it is still comfortable. I have tried it a few times and it felt pretty good. I'd be interested to know what you think about combining both. Thank you so much for all the great knowledge you put out and take care :)
You can. However the real tummo is pushing down (diaphrahm) and pull up (mulabhanda) on the breath in. Try it! If you like to learn more, and in a more structured wat, check out my breathing course. www.timvandervliet.com/control-your-breath-control-your-life/
'Iam a bit of a weirdo'! 😂🤗 Join the club! I am so happy to meet another like me! 🤩We are normal, it's the others who are odd! Love the breathing, thank you.😍
Hi , Tim Thank you for your response I cant do this work , because , my country is Sanctioned by USA. thus we cant send any money for you or another Person.if there is any way Inform me asap
For u to go in advanve level u have to feel your chakras . And after u have felt chakras u will put seed syllable in each of the chakras .. u will push the diaphgram and hold the breath in sacred chakra in central channel . Left and right channels are connected to the central channel in sacred chakra .. ty
@@Timvandervliet what you have to learn is the prana movement in the body..only when it is controlled then all of it can be focussed on the root chakra where the movement of it to the sushumna takes you to a different dimension..its not so simple to explain and only given to students with a higher purpose..i can explain the general procedure though..but unlike what most people say it is not taking your breathe to root chakra..this is physically impossible..all breathe can only go so far as your lungs ..
not during. Before or after. If you like to know more about what I learned and how breathing can make you stronger, healthier and stress free, please check out my new online course.

Hello Tim. I came across a short version of Tummo. My question is can you exhale the air, squeeze the abs and perineum and repeat ? Is it more advantageous to inhale the air swallow and squeeze and repeat? Why inhale and hold, is that an advantage, what's the difference in physiology? Thanks
Great answer makes sense. Could you please do a video on nitrous oxide breathing to lower blood pressure. There is one that is done where you fully inflate from abdomen up to chess clavicle etc then you let the breathe out quickly through the mouth like letting out a sigh? Would a slower loger exhale would be better ? Where can I donate to your cause? Kind wishes. Alistair
I'm been doing Wim Hoff breathing for two months, and in the past few weeks have being trying Tummo. However, whereas Wim Hoff makes me feel great, I find Tummo leaves me feeling unwell: some temporary dizziness and nausea straight away, and then a general unbalanced-feeling for quite a long time afterwards. I've tried adjusting it - not breathing so deep, doing a shorter breath-hold at the end, varying the speed which which I exhale afterwards - but it seems like I either have to adjust it so much I get no effect at all, or I just get the negative effects. (BTW, I've never had a bad experience doing the regular Wim Hoff breathing). Any advice would be appreciated!
@@Timvandervliet Thanks for your advice. I have tried this again over the past few days and the results are much better. No dizziness, just an amazing feeling of vibrant energy. Its such an intense feeling that it still scares me a little, but overall it’s a much better experience than my first attempts.
it is alot more effective to do it standing in qigong stands... work with the entire body... if you rock backwards you inhale and if you rock forwards you exhale...
Meh.... This is not Tummo. If you really want to learn Tummo, give up on trying to pick it up from here and there online, or even books (there is a decent book but still you can learn the technique but it won't work). Go get the empowerment from a Tibetan Buddhist Lama. Seriously, it won't work without the empowerment. See how you are not empowered to do Tummo in this video? Because you haven't had the empowerment. Secondly, you don't know the technique. Your technique won't work. Tummo is more than the breathing and even the visualization. It is a full yogic system similar to kundalini yoga. You can't just guess some breathing technique and claim that it is kundalini yoga. Never breathe through the mouth. The breathing technique is called Bumbachen, or vase breathing, or kumbaka in Sanskrit. It the the breathless state that is the secret. The technique is to prepare your body to be able to be in the breathless state for extended periods of time. Yes you want to push it into the lower abdomen. But this is all supportive of the real practice, which you say is too complicated for you and that you don't understand. So don't teach it. It is dangerous. Tummo is not Wim Hoff technique either. Wim Hoff is cool, learn that if you want to melt ice. Tummo is spiritual and is dealing with kundalini. Don't be a know-nothing teacher. Only teach what you know. Tummo involves preparing your nervous system and opening each channel in a certain order and colors and light and lotus petals and seed syllables and deities. You can simplify it by just using colored light and sounds and yogic exercises..... But just find a teacher and learn it. Then you will see why nobody teaches it publicly, because it cannot be taught or learned publicly.
If you want a clue: inhale deeply and hold your breath for a minute and a half, while RELAXING. When your body starts panicking, RELAX the convulsions of your diaphragm. Be ALERT and observe the mind and the nerve channels when this happens and how visualization effects it. See how comfortable you can get in this state. When you cannot hold it any longer, exhale and inhale again and go again for 1 1/2 minutes, without recovery breath. Again and again. Watch the difference in the mind between panicking/discomfort and relaxation/bliss. See how it is a choice. See how, in the breathless state, energy follows the mind much more vividly. This is NOT the tummo technique, so don't go teaching this as the tummo technique! This is simply a clue, not the technique. The real Tummo is how you direct the energy, NOT the breathing technique. The breathing technique is vase breathing, which is used in lots of Tibetan practices, not only Tummo. Tummo is how you direct the energy, in which order, and how you open the channels up to the spacious absolute space of existence. Now I have to stop and I cannot say anymore. Go find a teacher. Your technique is wrong about squeezing the root lock. You squeeze the root lock while holding the breath. Not during inhale or exhale, and never breath through the mouth. You are breathing too much.
Let me know if you have a question or a remark by leaving a comment.
Thanks for sharing this!
Ty for share ,. very interesting what the body may is able to and we may dont ecen know ,. greets ReRiX,. which an nice day
You teach very well. Thank you
Can you discuss pore breathing as part of tummo breathing? Really value your teachings Tim.
Amazing instruction, Tim! Thank you this made me feel far less intimidated to attempt the Tummo breathing.
Thank you that is a big compliment.
Great video! Your video is probably the easiest to understand of all the ones I have watched. I have a much better understanding of the steps after watching and I am grateful. Thank you for the great instruction.
You're a very fine, very pleasant to listen to teacher. Thank you.
Thank you, Tim. This is great and will help so many. God bless you.

Thank You, Tim....adding this to my Morning Practice, before 5 Tibetan Rites. Peace.
Nice, I do them afterwards. How are you doing? I may come to Miami end of January.
Very interesting technique
Thank you, Tim. A true gentleman.
Cheers
Can you discuss breathing in other elements like air, water, earth? Initiation into hermetics casts light breathing practices that may interest you.
Ok
Thank you for this wonderful clear explanation! Can we do tummo breathing in the icebath?
Nope
23-feb-2021 #morning_breathing, thank you ❤️ tummo Tim! 🙏

Is it that you could be more flexible there?
I think that stage 5 is about ida pingala and shushumna. Those are anergy channels.

When you practice the way you explain, does your body heat up? Do you feel like you can resist the cold using this method? Thank you.
Somewhat yes
i must say your voice is badass :D very nice
Thanks man, all my family members have a little crack

How long may it take someone to raise their temperature?
Almost immediate?
You can do tummo breathing during the exposure to the cold but you use WHM before the exposure, right?

whats best for the lower back , to sit with legs crossed while doing tummo breathing , or to lay down in the bed and do it?

Hello ! what is the "root lock" ?
The PC muscle. The muscle used to empty the last little bit of urine from bladder. Between the butt and private area.
@@derekt2127 👍 thank you
Root lock for me is either mullabanda or but muscle, or the both. Up to you. Thanks Vilulicious!
@@danndann6994 you’re much welcome. Be safe. Have fun. Namaste. 🙏

That last part the G'tummo is a form of Phowa. contact me if you want to learn more.
Will, thanks! How do i contact you?
I would also like to get contact info so I can learn Tummo as well.
Root lock is not the "butt muscle" it is the perineum
I know man. Just keeping it simple
it is alot more effective to do it standing in qigong stands... work with the entire body... if you rock backwards you inhale and if you rock forwards you exhale...
