PRESSING HEELS TOGETHER, MULA BANDHA
The techniques described have dual scope: to perfect the execution of Mula Bandha and to develop the capacity to naturally add its practice to various asana and pranayama, where convenient, useful, is necessary or where it is indicated as indispensable in the descriptions of the postures.

Mula Bandha creates a centre of stability that is both physical and psychic; it generates an ascending energy movement and favors purification and wealth. Useful in case of incontinence, menstrual pain, prostate ailments, prolapse of uterus and other organs or inner muscles of the pelvis; precious tool during pre-menopause and menopause and to reduce the effects of andropause. Anti-aging practice par excellence. The perineum is the physical location of Muladhara Chakra, it's the foundation for all that is above. The benefits of this gesture, when correctly and gently performed, are inestimable.
