Pranayama, the practice of ancient yogic breathing techniques, consciously controls the flow of breath, and thus enhances the flow of energy in the body. A regular, balanced pranayama practice increases prana (life energy), thereby inviting greater mental clarity, heightened healing potential and deeper self-understanding. Pranayama, like other yogic practices, is about being more fully alive and well, and is a particularly helpful in the preparation for meditation.

This workshop will provide instruction and practice of pranayama techniques that you can integrate into your current practice. You will work on 13 to 14 different breathing techniques during the session along with some yoga poses that will target different parts of the body. Breathing, Meditation and Yoga Poses will be coordinated with the goal of gaining energy and strength to cope with the difficult life situations.
