Pranayama

Our life goes from different twists and turns. There is a tension in our daily life which hampers our health to get nourished. We all need to come out of this and thus I believe practicing yoga is not only a best way to get rid of our bad health problems but keep our minds stable and calm in all situations. In my last post I mentioned about Pranayama. Let me throw light over the topic here. Pranayama is the breathe control technique which is vital part of Yoga. This is the first step that leads you to the highest point of meditation. 

Advantages of Pranayama-
  • Through pranayama you learn to breathe properly and in a healthy way.
  • It throws away all the harmful toxins out of our body.
  • Improves digestive system.
  • Helps to concentrate on one thing.
  • You feel much relaxed and energetic.
  • You start to hold control on yourself.
  • Make your lungs clear of toxins and makes it stronger.
One point of caution here is, even though Pranayama is beneficial for all of us but it should be learned  from a good yoga instructor or a teacher. Otherwise may reach harm to us sometimes due to doing it in a wrong way.

How do you breathe?


You should always remember one thing about breathing and that is breathe by your nose. It is found that people unknowingly breathe by their mouth. This lead them to many problems. One more thing which ignored by many of us is either we breathe very fastly or little by little. Such breathing practice doesn’t help us to have enough intake of Oxygen. The result is increased level of toxins in the body. 


Yoga gives you the way of breathing in a right manner. Pranayama is one such breathing practice that rejuvenate your whole body and keeps you energetic always.
