5-Week Pranayama Course

This course will meet for 5 straight weeks from 10:30-12:00 on Sunday morning.

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.
