8 Limbs: Pranayama

  • forest moon yoga 1830 Main St Washougal, WA, 98671 United States (map)

Prana = life source or energy
Often described as the very essence that keeps us alive, as well as the energy in the universe around us.

Pranayama can mean ‘breath control’ or ‘breath restraint’. When we’re practicing Pranayama, we are learning how to control the breath. Each way of breathing will change our state of being, but it’s up to us as to whether we perceive this as ‘controlling’ the way we feel or ‘freeing’ ourselves from the habitual way our mind may usually be.

In this workshop will we practice/learn different breathing techniques to use during our physical (Asana) practice or to prepare the body and mind for meditation. Please dress comfortably but be prepared to move as we implement some of these techniques.
