"While fasting, try to draw energy into your body by other means. Inhale very deeply, filling your whole body with energy. Yogis recommend also a strange technique that we shall discuss in detail in a later lesson. It is known as Kechari Mudra. It consists of joining the tip of the tongue to the uvula (the soft, fleshy lobe that hangs from the soft palate at the back of the mouth), or with certain nerves in the nasal passages behind the soft palate. This position draws energy to the brain and body. Yogis say that bears in hibernation keep their tongues locked in this position, and thereby live through the winter without food. To join the tip of the tongue to the necessary nerves in the nasal passages is more difficult. For now, try simply joining the tip of the tongue to the uvula. I have practiced this mudra while fasting, and have found that my hunger disappeared." --from "The Art and Science of Raja Yoga", textbook to the course "Raja Yoga" reikiblessings/rajayoga.html
