          In yoga, the shape of our digestive system is seen as a conch (Shankha) which has a long spiral tunnel-like intestine, and prakshalan in Sanskrit is called cleansing. Shankha prakshalan is a yogic cleansing technique of the digestive system including the whole gastrointestinal tract (mouth to the anus).
          In contrast to other yogic cleansing techniques where a person drinks enough water and then vomit it out, In Shankha prakshalan drinking lukewarm saline water is followed by a precise series of asanas. This series of asanas particularly called Shankha prakshalan asanas.
          According to Gheranda Samhita, the practice provides a luminous body by eliminating toxins from the body.
          The major purpose of shankha prakshalan is to promote bowel movement naturally without any medication and side effects.
          It also serves as a vital part of an ayurvedic technique known as Kaya kalpa. It can be understood as physical transformation, as “kaya” means body and “kalpa” is a term for transformation. Therefore, shankha prakshalan is more than a purification technique. It is a holistic approach to eliminate impurities promoting physical and mental health.
