Prana is the breath or vital energy in the body.Pranic energy responsible for life or life force, and ayama means control.So pranayama is control of Breath. Pranayama is the ultimate technique which produces a marvelous change in human life .Pranayama includes different type of breathing techniques by which the awareness of the processes of stress relief can be expanded and thus gain control over them. Regular pranayama practices enhance quality of life by improving physical, physiological perspectives of human being. Present time is full of stress and tension, people are the need of mental calmness and relaxation. In ancient time the sages have developed various pranayama techniques to give rest your body and mind. Pranayama is universally benefiting all persons of all age groups.Anulom-vilom is one of the most effective pranayamas(breathing exercises)to purify the mind and body.This pranayama helpful in curing most of the internal body condition .Anulom-vilom pranayama ,one inhales through one nostril keeping other nostril closed at a time and released the breath through the other nostril at the next moment,repeat the same order again and again for few minutes.

Apar Avinash Saoji et al., (2019) Pranayama or breath regulation was considered as an essential component of Yoga, which was said to influence the physiological systems. We present a comprehensive overview of scientific literature in the field of yogic breathing. We searched PubMed, PubMed Central and IndMed for citations for keywords “Pranayama” and “Yogic Breathing”. The search yielded a total  of 1400 references. Experimental papers, case studies and case series in English, revealing the effects of yogic breathing were included in the review. The preponderance of literature points to beneficial effects of yogic breathing techniques in both physiological and clinical setups. Advantageous effects of yogic breathing on the neurocognitive, psycho physiological, respiratory, biochemical and metabolic functions in healthy individuals were elicited. They were also found useful in management of various clinical conditions. Overall, yogic breathing could be considered safe, when practiced under guidance of a trained teacher. Considering the positive effects of yogic breathing, further large scale studies with rigorous designs to understand the mechanisms involved with yogic breathing were warranted.

Bal (2010) the purpose of this study was to find out the Effect of anulom vilom and bhastrika pranayama on the vital capacity and maximal ventilatory volume. In this was, thirty (N = 30) randomly selected male students aged 18-26 years volunteered to participate in the study from D.A.V. Institute of Engineering and Technology, Jalandhar (Punjab), India. They were randomly assigned into two groups: A (experimental) and B (control). The subjects were subjected to the eight week pranayama training programme that includes “Anulom Vilom Pranayam” and “Bhastrika Pranayam”. The between-group differences were assessed using the Student’s t-test for dependent data. The level of p D0.05 was considered significant. The vital capacity and maximal ventilatory volume significantly improved in group A compared with the control one. Pranayama training programme may be recommended to improve vital capacity and maximal ventilatory volume 

To achieve the purpose of this, 60girl’s students were randomly selected as subject from 16 to 19 years. The selected participants were randomly divided in twogroups such as group A. experimental group(N-30) and group B acted as control group (N-30). Group A under supervision anulom-vilom practices 30 minutes daily for six week. However, Group B(control group) was not exposed to any specific training but they participated in their regular schedule. The stop watch was used to measure breath holding times were collected on selected criterion variable prior and immediately after training program. All the participants were informed about the objective and protoccol of the study.Datd and identity information of participants maintained in privancy .Participants start with Om in padmasan then Anulom-Vilom(Alternate Nostril breathing exercise).In the last Shavasan for 5 minutes.The pre and post- test selected criterion variable scores were statistically examinedby the dependent t-test. The level of significant was fixed at .05 level of confidence. Which was considered? Tool used for collecting the data: -Stop watch for time count.,yoga mat, peaceful area

Significance of Difference Between Control and Experimental Groups’ Girls Students on Postive Maximum Breath Holding Time Before Training Progaramme

Table-1.1

Variable	Groups	N	Mean	S.D.	S.E.D.	t-ratio	Level of significance
Maximum Breath holding positive	Control	30	30.22	5.40	1.31	0.71	Not Sig.
	Experimental	30	29.26	4.92

It is evident from the table 1.1 that the mean scores of control and experimental group of senior secondary girls’ student in pre-test are 30.22 and 29.26 respectively. The t-ratio come out from the above two groups is 0.71,which is not significance at both levels of significance i.e.0.05 and 0.01.It indicates that there is no significant difference between control and experimental group girls students on positive maximum breath holding time before providing them training programme.

Significance Of Mean Difference Of Experimental Group’s Girls Student In Pre-Test And Post-Test On Postive Maximum Breath Holding Time

Table-1.2

Variable	Test	N	Mean	S.D.
Maximum breath holding positive	pre-test	30	29.26	4.94
	post–test	30	30.80	5.27

It is shown from the above table 1.2 that the mean scores of experimental group in pre and post-test are 29.26 and 30.80 and standard deviation scores are 4.94 and 5.27 respectively. The mean score of post- test 30.80 is more than mean score of pre -test 29.29. That means thetraining programme of Anulom-vilom pranayama has a significant effect on positive maximum breath holding of senior secondary girls students. It is also shown diagrammatically on the following way

Significance of Mean Difference between Pre-Test and Post-Test

Significance of Difference Between Pre-Test and Post-Test of Experimental Groips’ Girls Students on Postive Maximum Breath Holding Time.     

Variable	Test	N	Mean	S.D.	S.ED.	T-ratio	Level of significant **
Maximum breath holding positive	pre-test	30	29.26	4.94	1.31	2.67	Significant**
	post-test	30	32.80	5.27

** Significant at 0.05 and 0.01 levels

It is revealed from table 1.3 that mean scores of pre-test and post-test experimental group’s senior secondary girls are 29.2 and 32.80 respectively. The t-ratio come out from two groups is 2.67, which is significant at both levels of significance i.e.0.05 and 0.01.It indicates that there is significant difference between pre-test and post-test of girls students on positive maximum breath holding time .That means anulom-vilom training programme has significant effect on positive maximum breath holding of senior secondary girls students.

It is evident from table 1.4 that the mean scores of control and experimental group senior secondary girls’ students in pre-test are 28.12 and 30.40 respectively. The radio come out from the above two groups  is 1.48,which is not significant at both levels of significance i.e. 0.05 and 0.01.It indicates that there is no significant difference between control and experimental groups girls student on negative maximum breath holding time before providing them training programme.

It is shown from the above table 1.5 that mean scores of experimental group in pre-and post- tests are 30.40 and 32.40 and standard deviation scores are 5.72 and 6.19 respectively. The mean score of post-test 32.40 is more than the mean score of pre-test 30.40. That means the training programme of Anulom-vilompranayama has a significant effect on negative maximum breath holding of senior secondary girls students. It is also shown diagrammatically on the following way.
