Total rest for about 1 hr to 45 min is essential after the practice of shankhaprakshalan in shavasana position, one should not sleep as it may result in a cold or
headache. Try to maintain complete silence because during this time the whole digestive system is given a chance to recharge itself. Passing urine at this time is
perfectly normal.
Special meal
2 hours after completing shankhaprakshalan the specially prepared food, khichri (rice + moong lentils), must be taken, eating this meal at correct time is essential. The
3 components of the khichri are helpful in the restoration of correct digestive function. The clarified butter (cow's ghee) is necessary to coat the intestinal walls until the
body produces new lining. Rice provides simple easily digestible material in the form of carbohydrates and creates mucus, which also protects the inner lining of the
alimentary canal. The lentils supplement the diet by giving the body an easily digestible source of protein, it's an all round nutritional meal and sufficient quantity of it
must be eaten to help the intestines and keep the walls of the gut stretched, other wise they may cramp due to the absence of the bulk to which they are accustomed.
This bulk not only maintains the lane but also aids the intestine to resume peristalsis. It is also important in order to present in digestion, diarrhea and constipation.
Further rest However, it is important not to sleep for at least 3 hours, after the initial meal Sleep during this period may lead to physical lethargy and headache
complete rest should be taken for the remaining of the day and also for the following days. During this period it is advisable to keep moan (silence) and avoid physical
& mental work.

Frequency This practice should be preformed only once in 6 months.
Duration The whole day should be aside for this practice and the following day for the rest.
Practice - 1st day - 1 round, an increase one round per day, for 6 days.
