Více o knize

Breathing is our body's most fundamental process and an intimate companion, yet it often goes unnoticed in daily life. When acknowledged and harnessed, breath holds immense power—relieving stress and anxiety, boosting energy, enhancing self-confidence, sharpening focus, improving voice quality, and alleviating pain. A Sanskrit proverb states, "If you breathe well, you will live long on earth." Renowned yoga teacher Swami Saradananda offers gentle yet powerful guidance on mastering the art of breathing. The introduction covers the basics of breath and its connection to the subtle body in yogic terms, along with advice on rediscovering natural breathing and preparing for exercises. Following this, the book explores five types of breath from the yogic tradition, each linked to a specific energy or life force: vitalizing (prana), nourishing (samana), expansive (vyana), cleansing (apana), and expressive (udana). Over 30 life-enriching breathing exercises are detailed, each illustrated for clarity and visual appeal. A final section includes mini breathing programs targeting common ailments like asthma, skin disorders, depression, and phobias, as well as enhancing vocal, dramatic, or sports performance. With evocative artwork and easy-to-follow guidance, this resource will enrich your daily life through breathwork.
