How to do this practice-
For performing jal Neti, you must have a special pot which is known as Neti Lota. the nozzle of the end of the spout should fit comfortably into your nostril so that the water does not leak out. make sure that the water is at body temperature and has a salt mixed in it. the proportion of salt should be 1 teaspoonful per half a litre of water. if you experience pain or a burning sensation while performing jalneti it could means that there is either too little or too much salt in the water. there are two stages of Jal Niti.
stage 1 washing the nostril– first of all fill the pot with salted water and stand straight with legs apart .now lean forward and close your eyes,tilt your head to one side and then slightly raise your chin while moving your head back. breathe through your mouth and insert the nozzle into the upper nostril ,press the nozzle of the pot firmly into the nostril to avoid Water leakage. now tilt the Neti pot in such a way that the salt water from the pot runs into the nostril and not down your face. now adjust your body position to enable the salt water to pass through the other nostril. remove the nozzle from the nostril when half of the salt water has passes through. let the rest of the water run out of both the nostrils blow your nose gently to remove any Mucus. now tilt your head to the other side and repeat the process. you might feel that your nose has dry completely after this process.
Stage =2 drying the nostrils
