Pranayama Demystified
Hosted by Flow Yoga Austin - North Loop
The breath is a window into how you're feeling in your emotions and in your day. It is a powerful tool we always have at our disposal with profound effects on all the systems of the body. The term "Pranayama" is derived from the Sanskrit words "prana," or 'life force' and 'vital energy' and "ayama," meaning 'to control'. The Yoga Sutras tell us, 'By controlling and regulating the breath, we can control and regulate our mind.
This workshop is based in Yogic Philosophy plus newer research in the field of breath and breathing. We will explore:
- The anatomy of breathing
- Is there a right way to breathe?
- Explore numerous techniques with guidance
For teachers and home practitioners alike, we will answer questions like how and where to practice breathwork in a structured class.
Pranayama practices can regulate the nervous system, prepare you for your day ahead, help with sleep, and lead you towards experiences of deep states of conscousness and awareness. Come explore, learn, and breathe.
