Breath to Bliss with Suraji
Breath Yoga. In the west when we hear or talk about Yoga, it is normally Hatha Yoga which includes postures and pranayamas. Breath Yoga techniques are tools to bring body, mind, nerves, consciousness and inner self into harmony.
At subtle levels it balances flow of prana( life force/energy) in the Chakras (energy centers) for achieving elevated awareness. Breath yoga is a powerful breathing technique which is relatively new to west as compared to traditional postures and pranayama techniques.
Happiness, sorrow or pain affects our pattern and rhythm of breathing. Conversely when we control and regulate our breath, we control our emotional state. This is the simple key to understand the concept of BreathYoga. It helps in achieving a balanced and calm state of mind. One’s problems do not get solved immediately, but one’s attitude to the world changes. Breath Yoga helps to bring the mind to present and balances prana. Ultimately higher state of consciousness is achieved.
