pranayama
A pathway to strengthen the connection of body & mind.
Pranayama uses the breath to direct and expand the flow of prana in our energy channels. By developing a practice, our breathing and bodily function will improve, and we will clear and calm the mind.
Swami Satyananda Saraswati describes the techniques as providing:
“…the method whereby the life force [prana] can be activated or regulated in order to go beyond one’s normal boundaries or limitations and attain a higher state of vibratory energy and awareness.”
​
“When we practice pranayama the veil is gradually drawn away from the mind and there is growing clarity. The mind becomes ready for deep meditation.”
