Pranayama Exercise

1. Pranayama Exercises & Poses What is Pranayama? “The regulation of the breath through certain techniques and exercises”. "Pranayama is control of Breath". "Prana" is Breath or vital energy in the body. On subtle levels prana represents the pranic energy responsible for life or life force, and "ayama" means control. So Pranayama is "Control of Breath". Pranayama is the perfect control of the life-currents through control of breath, and is the process by which we understand the secret of prana and manipulate it. You can hardly make any spiritual progress without the practice of Pranayama. One who has grasped this prana has grasped the very core of cosmic life and activity. Through various exercises and training in Pranayama the yogi tries to realize in this little body the whole of cosmic life, and attain perfection. http://www.vedicgrace.com/articles/vinayak-bhatt-best-astrologer-best- astrologer-india-best-astrologer-delhi/ © Copyright 2016, Vedicgrace Foundations

2. Breath is a physical aspect or external manifestation of prana, the vital force, and thus Pranayama begins with the regulation of the breath. Breath, like electricity, is gross prana, while prana itself is subtle. By controlling the breath you can control the prana – just as you can control the other wheels by controlling or stopping the fly wheel of a diesel engine, and just as you can control the hairspring, cog wheels and the main spring of a watch by controlling the minute hand. Control of breath is achieved through manipulation of the lungs and the breathing process. http://www.vedicgrace.com/articles/vinayak-bhatt-best-astrologer-best- astrologer-india-best-astrologer-delhi/ ‘Prana’ refers to the universal lifeforce and ‘ayama’ means to regulate or lengthen. Prana is the vital energy needed by our physical and subtle layers, without which the body would perish. It is what keeps us alive. Pranayama is the control of prana through the breath. These techniques rely on breathing through the nostrils. Prana flows through thousands of subtle energy channels called ‘nadis’ and energy centres called ‘chakras’.

3. and the way it flows through the nadis and chakras determines one’s state of mind. If the Prana level is high and its flow is continuous, smooth and steady, the mind remains calm, positive and enthusiastic. However, due to lack of knowledge and attention to one’s breath, the nadis and chakras in the average person may be partially or fully blocked leading to jerky and broken flow. As a result one experiences increased worries, fear, uncertainty, tensions, conflict and other negative qualities. http://www.vedicgrace.com/articles/best-astrologer-in-bangalore/ Pranayama are breathing exercises which clear the physical and emotional obstacles in our body to free the breath and so the flow of prana - life energy. Through a regular and sustained practice of Pranayama you can supercharge your whole body! The way that we move, think, act and especially breathe contributes to the flow and vitality of prana - the universal energy that runs through us and everything around us. Why is the breath so important? © Copyright 2016, Vedicgrace Foundations

4. http://www.vedicgrace.com/articles/best-astrologer-in-bangalore/ It’s the first thing and last thing we do in our lives. The one constant thing we all have. Without breath there is no life! Daily stressors, tensions and physical habits can create physical and energetic obstacles in our bodies. Without even noticing it our breathing can become gradually more shallow or stilted, we develop unconscious breathing patterns restricting the flow of breath and prana. When we work on the freeing the breath through Pranayama (breathing exercises) we are also working on letting the life energy flow through the body. It has the effect of energizing; relaxing and healing the body, letting everything fall into place. Literally it is an increase and balance of life energy in your system. Pranayama – why it actually works! Pranayama is a great yoga exercise which can relieve stress and has other health benefits also. Ever felt like the weight of the whole world rests on your shoulders? Well, there is a method to quieten your mind and get rid of that stress – just breathe. According to ancient Indian scriptures, breathing is one of the best things you can do to help your body recover, repair and function better. Also known as Pranayama, it not only good in theory it actually works. Here is why. Prana: The breath of life The ancient Indian system of yoga identified the power of breath and strove to maximize its efficiency by developing special breathing techniques. The ancient yogis discovered prana as the universal life force or energy which distinguishes the living from the dead. We get prana from food, rest, breath and by being in a calm, happy frame of mind. However, the most important source of prana is breath © Copyright 2016, Vedicgrace Foundations

5. – when our breath stops, we die. It was discovered that the quantity and quality of prana and the way it flows through the nadis (subtle energy channels) determines one’s state of mind. Due to lack of attention, the energy channels in the average person may be partially blocked, making the flow of prana, broken and jerky. This results in increased worry, fear, uncertainty, conflict, tension and other negative qualities. When the prana level is high and its flow is continuous, smooth and steady, then the mind is calm, positive and enthusiastic. (http://www.vedicgrace.com/articles/best-astrologer-in- bangalore) As Sri Sri Ravi Shankar says ‘Breath is the link between the body and mind. If the mind is a kite the breath is the thread. The longer the thread, the higher the kite can go.’ (Read: Beat insomnia with yoga) Breathe out stress, breathe in joy Did you know that we can throw out 90 percent of the toxins from our body by breathing correctly? We can learn the art of breathing right by observing new born babies. Have you seen their stomach gently rising and falling as they breathe in and breathe out? © Copyright 2016, Vedicgrace Foundations

6. Breath is our vital source of energy. The key to healthy and happy living lies in right breathing. When we attend to our breath, it can heal us from all worries and anxieties. At a conference in Germany, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar explained the connect between breath and emotions, ‘Our breath is linked to our emotions. For every emotion, there is a particular rhythm in the breath. So, when you cannot directly harness your emotions, with the help of breath you can do that. If you are in theatre, you would know that a director asks you to breathe faster when you have to show anger. If you have to show a serene scene, director would tell you to breathe softer and slower. If we understand the rhythm of our breath, we are able to have a say over our mind, we can win over any negative emotions like anger, jealousy, greed, and we are able to smile more from our heart.’ Breathe right: Most of us breathe from the chest – such shallow breathing sends a signal to the brain that all is not well – we are stressed. Alternatively, breathing from the abdomen boosts respiration, ensures a rich supply of oxygen to the brain and signals that all is well. © Copyright 2016, Vedicgrace Foundations

9. Bhastrika Pranayama Bhastrika is an important breath exercise in yoga and Pranayama. It is sometimes treated as a kriya or ‘cleansing action’ along with kapālabhāti to clear the airways in preparation for other Pranayama techniques. Bhastrika involves a rapid and forceful inhalation and exhalation powered by the movement of the diaphragm. The movement of air is accompanied by an audible sound. One inhale and exhale equals one round of bhastrika and it may be repeated for many consecutive rounds. Astrologer Vinayak Bhatt explains that the similar “process or kriya of kapālabhāti is a milder form of Bhastrikā Prāṇāyāma. When you practice this Pranayama a hissing sound is produced. The practitioner should start with rapid expulsions of breath following one another in rapid succession. When the required number of expulsions, say ten for a round, is finished, the final expulsion is followed by a deepest possible inhalation. The breath is suspended as long as it could be done with comfort. Then deepest possible exhalation is done very slowly. The end of this deep exhalation completes one round of Bhastrika”. http://www.vedicgrace.com/articles/best-astrologer-in-toronto-best- vedic-astrologer-in-toronto/ Sanskrit word Bhastrika means bellows. This breathing exercise resembles the blowing of bellows. Bhastrika is the excellent breathing exercise which we can practice slowly or fast as per our convenience. © Copyright 2016, Vedicgrace Foundations

This process of exhaling should be much faster than the process of inhaling -- almost like a rapid deflation. 3.Repeat the process. When correctly done, your chest will expand when you breathe in and deflate when you breathe out. Continue doing this for 5 minutes. 4.With practice, speed up your breathing. Beginners should always start slowly to avoid hyperventilating, but over time, it will be possible to turn this into a rapid breathing technique. http://www.vedicgrace.com/articles/best-astrologer-in-toronto- best-vedic-astrologer-in-toronto/ © Copyright 2016, Vedicgrace Foundations
