SAHAJOLI MUDRA (Attitude of Spontaneous Arousing in Women) in Hath Yoga

 SAHAJOLI MUDRA  (Attitude of Spontaneous Arousing in Women) 

Sahajoli and amaroli are separate techniques of vajroli. The ashes of burnt cow manure should be mixed with water. After performing vajroli during intercourse, (being in a comfortable position), the man and woman should wipe the ashes on specific parts of their bodies during the leisure time. It is called sahajoli and the yogis have complete faith in it. This is very beneficial and enables enlightenment through the combination of yoga and bhoga (sensual involvement). (92-94)

Here in this sloka of the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, we are shown that the combination of yoga (awareness) and bhoga (sensual involvement) are compatible. In fact, as long as you are involved in the external world the inner awareness must be developed and yoga or union must be the objective. This is where hatha yoga becomes extremely useful, whether one is following the path of involvement or resignation.

Sahajoli mudra is the contraction of the urinary passage in women to activate the svadisthana chakra, or energy center, and redirect sexual energy to spiritual practices. This yogic practice helps in controlling the flow of urine using the muscles of the urinary tract. 

Technique of Sahajoli Mudra 

Sit in a comfortable cross-legged position.

Relax your body and focus on your breath.

Contract the muscles around your urethra as if you were trying to stop the flow of urine.

Hold the contraction for a few seconds, then release.

Repeat the contraction and release cycle several times.

As you practice, you can increase the duration of the contractions and the number of repetitions.

Benefits of Sahajoli Mudra 

Sahajoli mudra can help to strengthen the muscles of the urinary tract, reducing the risk of incontinence and improving bladder control.

Sahajoli mudra can help to increase sexual energy and improve sexual function by enhancing control over ejaculation and enhancing sensitivity.

Sahajoli mudra involves focusing the mind on the sensations in the pelvic area, which can help to promote mindfulness and reduce stress and anxiety.

Sahajoli mudra can help to enhance overall health and wellbeing by promoting proper blood circulation, digestion, and elimination.

It is important to practice Sahajoli mudra under the guidance of a qualified yoga teacher, especially if you have any underlying medical conditions. People with pelvic pain, prostate issues, or urinary tract infections should avoid this practice.
