Granthi is a Sanskrit term meaning "doubt" or "knot;" more specifically, it denotes "a difficult knot to untie."

The term is found in yogic literature and refers to knotted areas of energy, which can block the flow of prana in the body.

In Kundalini yoga, it is said that granthis can be responsible for preventing prana from rising up through sushumna nadi (the central channel of the energetic body).

As such, these knots prevent one's full potential from being unleashed and restricts spiritual development.

They are barriers to freedom and spiritual liberation (moksha). Granthis are unblocked specifically through Bhastrika Pranayama and Kumbhaka with Bandhas.
