Here are some questions I have regarding asanas and pranayamas:
1. Can you give details about the stomach vacuum practice. How many
rounds did you work up to? Did you do them sitting or standing?
2. Do you know if Kalabhati is harmful to inguinal hernia? I find
conflicting information on the internet. It seems that mostly,
negative reference to hernias and Kalabhati is made to hiatal and
upper abdominal hernias. Much of the information just refers to
hernia, without specific type.
Thanks!

should be Kapalabhati ... not Kalabhati
Sorry!
It is best done when your stomach, bowels and bladder are all empty,
e.g. in the morning after going to the toilet but before having
breakfast. It's even more effective after a day or two, or three or
four, of fasting.
I have never practiced kapalabhati, so I won't comment on that.
