Hey Nathan, the binaural beats I mainly use in recovery, especially if I have just done a good performance or 3 days of hard training. I often 'wake up' from a session feeling like I've been asleep, but with a conscious memory of what happened during the session.
Alex, blowing gently through the nose has the same effect, but by using the bandhas you don't have to get rid of any air...
It is interesting to observe the intense bradycardia: I have a small ticker and as such a pretty mediocre resting HR (low 50's), but using these techniques I can slow HR down, in the space of seconds, to the point where the Polar monitor discerns the atrial and ventricular contractions as two separate beats(if anyone knows of a monitor that works well at low HR, and can download graphs to the computer then let me know).
