The Sanskrit word pranayama means “to release life energy from its bounds.” When practiced correctly, this powerful form of yogic breathwork has the ability to reveal the intricate web of your thoughts, physiology, and energetic patterns – to quiet your mind and heighten receptivity – and to open you to “the intrinsic radiance of Being.”
On Yoga Breathing, Richard Freeman, director of the Yoga Workshop in Boulder, Colorado, invites you to learn the essential principles and techniques of pranayama, including:
• How to identify and observe your “internal breath”
• Dristi gazing/breathwork to tap into your body’s central energetic axis
• Ujjayi breathing to free prana (your life energy)
• “The tree of breath” practice
• Specific guidance for lying and seated pranayama, and much more
