Pranayama for Physical and Emotional Health

Discussing the Essence of Pranayama from the Golden Hour Program

In yoga, breathing is the link between the body and the mind. The mind and body can both be guided toward peace by the breath. In actuality, breathing serves as the primary link between the body and the mind.

The deliberate and conscious control and regulation of the breath are known as pranayama (Prana means breath, ayam means to control, to regulate). We take in Prana along with oxygen as we breathe. Cosmic energy, or Prana, is the force that generates, maintains, and transforms the universe. It is the fundamental component of awareness and life. Because food also contains Prana, maintaining a balanced vegetarian diet is crucial.

Breathing is a partially planned and partially involuntary activity. We have some degree of voluntary control over the breath, but we have no direct control over other automatic body processes like digestion, hormone releases, or our immune system. Additionally, breathing is a necessary living function. This combination is distinct. Therefore, breathing is a conscious doorway to the subconscious mind and a voluntary doorway to the involuntary body.

In ways that are not always obvious and at levels that are not always evident on the surface, breathing directly affects the state of the body and mind. In both Asana and meditation, the breath is a constant companion. However, the breath plays a crucial role in pranayama. Working with the breath in yoga is known as pranayama. It’s critical to calm the body and the mind before beginning pranayama. We may more easily access the delicate sense of the breath when the body is calm and the reason is at ease. Therefore, we shouldn’t robotically perform pranayama. Before and during the practice, we should actively focus on calming the body and mind.

According to mythology, a person’s number of breaths determines how long their life will be. We need air to survive and keep our bodies healthy, in addition to food and water. Even more significant than eating and drinking are the air we breathe. We can live without food for a few weeks. We can live without water for a few days. We can only live without breathing for a short period, though.

Practising these exercises while feeling both physically and emotionally relaxed is crucial. Physical relaxation is necessary because only then can the muscles stretch in the appropriate Asana without becoming tense. One must be mentally at ease to practise the asanas with a complete focus on unwinding and breathing. Because the relaxation of the muscles is linked to the exhale, one can significantly aid in it by deliberately exhaling.

Yoga demonstrates how various breathing may have an impact on both the body and the psyche. Unfortunately, how we usually breathe has diverged significantly from the healthy and appropriate manner to breathe.

This inner touch that we develop ought to be enjoyable and straightforward. The senses are brought inward as the mind centres on that sensation, which leads to gradually increased inner consciousness.
