Pranayama Practice
Thursday, June 11, 2026 @ (PDT) 5:30 PM – 6:45 PM UTC+0
With Swami Gangananda
IN PERSON OR ONLINE
Prana is the universal principle of energy or force. “Whatever moves or works or has life, is but an expression or manifestation of prana.” Breath is the external manifestation of prana. With the regular practice of pranayama—or controlling prana—you can store this energy in your brain and nerve plexi. You need an abundance of prana to be healthy and strong. Hatha Yoga has developed this to a science.
In this class, we will practice kapalabhati and anuloma viloma (alternate nostril breathing), in addition to sun salutations and relaxation. Learn a safe practice you can do daily.
- Balance and calm the mind.
- Tone your body, internal organs and digestion.
Swami Sivananda says, “A pranayama practitioner will have a light body free from disease, very fair complexion, a sweet melodious voice, and pleasant smell from his body. He will have good appetite, cheerfulness, a handsome figure, good strength, courage, enthusiasm, a high standard of health, vigour and vitality, and good concentration of mind.”
The practice is easy and the benefits immediate.
