“Pranayama is a conscious prolongation of inhalation, retention and exhalation.”
This very pared down definition doesn’t explain why someone might want to consciously change their rate of breathing. To understand pranayama it’s helpful to understand prana.
So what is prana? Classical yogic texts describe prana as the energy of the universe. This energy is the creator, sustainer, and destroyer, and because it permeates everything in the universe it is considered the breath of life. Prana is a Sanskrit word that translates as “vital life force”. Understanding what prana is and how it works is like being given a key that can unlock new improved levels of health and wellbeing—on the inside and out.
Pranayama helps cure diseases, most of the modern day diseases which are psychosomatic, meaning which arises due to disturbance and disharmony in the mind and manifests as a diseases in the physical body.
To know the science behind, watch this youtube video in which our founder director PRATIBHA AGARWAL explains the concept beautifully.
