The Sanskrit word mula refers to the root of a plant or tree. The word bandha means to check, obstruct, restrain, lock. Bandha is described as the damming up of a river, by doing this we can expand, open and strengthen the flow of energies through the body.
Jalandhara is a Sanskrit word derived from the roots jal, meaning "throat," and dhara, meaning "flow." It is performed by bringing the chin down towards the chest; therefore, it is also called the "chin lock." Practicing this bandha improves the function of the thyroid and parathyroid glands, as well as supports the cardiovascular and respiratory systems.
