From what I remember, it is recommended to do spinal breathing pranayama and just skip the areas that seem blocked, and always ending at the root and ajna.
What does it feel like to experience such a block? I too find my SBP easier to sort of feel at other spots except lower back and throat areas. |

You could try Spinal Bastrika Pranayama and see how it works:
http://www.aypsite.org/171.html
Also, this may not be a AYP-baseline practice, but you could gently try asanas that are twisting in nature while doing Spinal breathing pranayama or spinal bastrika pranayama. When I experience blocks during pranayama, I usually try to do it while doing twisting asanas(such as simple variations of matsyendrasana, cobra pose while turning/looking back, etc). Forward bends and backward bends before pranayama sessions are also good.
Also, maintaining awareness in deep silence at such locations can help dissolve blocks/pains in my experience. This is a gentle, but effective manner. I also remember some senior members in this forum mentioning Mantak Chia's "Inner Smile" technique to be very good(check out this thread: http://www.aypsite.org/forum/topic....OPIC_ID=2587). On the other hand, doing breath retentions could possibly open up this block quicker but in a much more aggressive manner, which may make things worse and more painful. So try (1) and (3). But I haven't really experienced any kind of pressured energetic blocks that you are going through; so these suggestions may not help. Take care :)

Namaste,
You could also try at keeping your attention in the blocked area and just try to be a witness there and dont try to unblock or something just take yiur concentration there and keep it there as a witness and see whats happening there and dont try to judge it.
Hope that helps and others would also suggest something better.
Love n Light
