In these series, we'll dive into Pranayama breathing techniques. Pranayama is derived from 2 Sanskrit words - Prana (life force) and Ayama (control). Though it's often associated with rapid breathing, Pranayama is all about control of the breath. The breath is the tool that unites body with the mind. When linking breath with movement, we gradually develop a relationship with the length, depth and pace of our inhale and exhale. This synchronicity creates balance.
In this class, we will start with the practice of asana (poses), the third limb of the eight limbs of yoga mentioned in the yoga sutras of Patanjali. By starting the class with asana (poses), the energy will flow through the body and you will sit more comfortable in a meditative pose to practice pranayama.
The asana's will be followed by the practice of pranayama, the fourth limb in the yoga sutras. The practice of pranayama will balance the energy in your body and will clear your mind from thoughts. This will help you get deeper into a guided meditation at the end of the class.
