So curiosity has overcome whatever resistence was present in regards to kechari mudra

I decided to use an exacto-knife, the ones used in arts, crafts, hobbies, etc. Essentially it is a pen with a razor blaze at one end.

Do you all think this would be appropriate?

So I made my first cut today. My wife has one of those 100X magnifying mirrors so I used that.

I noticed that there is almost like a pale colored almost white string--- I assume that is the part we need to cut?

So when cutting, I placed the edge of the blade on this area and attempted to cut. I feel like I didn't cut that white thing at all but rather made very smalll incissions on the fleshy part of it, to the left and the right--- I assume this isn't the correct proceedure? So I perhaps have used more force when cutting? Admittedly I was a bit hesitant to do it some maybe I just didn't apply enough force..

Anyways, any help for neo would be appreciated! :)

Cuticle snippers are best.

Don't waste your time with a blade.

Been there...done that

A related item,

Does one stretch immediately following the cut?

Hi Wakeupneo,

Some people prefer the blade, others the snippers. It's up to you.

Personally I find that immediately following a cut, I need to rest for a little while. But certainly you need to stretch the same day, and each day after otherwise the frenum will simply heal and be the same length as before.

What kind of stretches do you do afterwards? Milking? or Talabaya Kriya? Or otherwise?

I was cutting quite frequently but not stretching much on the day, was wondering why I wasn't getting very far.

Love

Do you find going into and staying in Kechari 1 or as far as you can is enough of a stretch?

I only practice kechari 1. So for me... yes.

I just thought I would/should repost as sometimes posts seem to get missed.

I think it is best to stretch BEFORE snipping due to some posts here.

It will send more fibers up to be snipped.

Hi Christi and Alwayson.

Thanks for the info.

Haven't been cutting for a while as I didn't feel like I was getting anywhere but will hopefully now progress that bit faster now.

Love. x
