Revitalise. Rejuvenate. Decompress.
Take a little holiday from a busy mind. Bring steadiness, calm and clarity. Yoga pranayama can provide all of these things and more. Only a few minutes of skilfully-focussed breathing is all it takes to bring about a felt change both physically and mentally.
In this workshop we will be looking at how pranayama, one of yoga’s greatest gifts, can be done as a standalone practice or used as a complement for other activities you love.
We will begin by getting familiar with the basics on a practical level, where you will be guided through a simple step-by-step practice. After this, we will discuss some key ideas behind what we just experienced and touch on further insights for incorporating this into your everyday.
Throughout, we will keep returning to five simple ideas which are presented as a series of progressive steps as you become more experienced and proficient. These five steps are:
– preparation
– consistency
– cadence
– ratio
– suspension
We will chat through how these five steps can be used to structure a pranayama practice and how they relate to yoga on a philosophical level.
