Pranayam is the power to change the frequency of mind. It is an art and has techniques to make the respiratory organs to move and expand internally, rhythmically and intensively. This disciplined breathing helps the mind to concentrate and enables the sadhak to attain robust health and longevity.
“Pranayama is the control of exhalation and inhalation”. In these fast phases of life, when life is surrounded by negative situations, it is the belief in yoga and the blessings of lord that can make you come out of the difficult situations. Situations changes, people changes but what should not change is the belief that you carry within your soul towards the connection with yoga and the power of Lord. Yoga connects us with the supreme soul. Taking control of breathing is the way to gain divine energy. It enhances the power of Intuition. You ask questions from the universe and universe gives an incredible answer beyond one’s imagination. That’s the experience one feels when go through the process of this ultimate yoga journey.
Pranayama in expanding consciousness and in maintaining health, we need to look for very specific changes that occur in the body – mind continuum in individuals practicing this ancient technique. The brain is a logical place for a search since yoga is for restraining the mind. The workings of the mind, breathing and body functions are closely connected to each other, as most workers in the psychosomatic area will agree. Breathing is a link between body and mind, as much as brain is a link between the two. Thus, if both brain and breathing are individually linked to the psyche and the soma, the natural question is what connections are there between is what connections are there between brain and breathing themselves.

Yoga has the power to give you the key for inner silence which unlock the potential of meeting divine energy. To harmonize the body, mind and spirit, yoga is the ultimate path. Performing asana, pranayama and chanting ‘AUM’ heals the chakras which deals with cosmic energy insight, truth, love, willpower, pleasure and survival. Life is blissful when all the chakras are balanced.
To be in the present movement is the aim of the breathing control. To be able to accept the reality is the toughest task for a person. When things go beyond our control, what’s left with us is only our state of mind at the present movement followed by our own actions.

Yoga ignites the power from within. The power that has nothing to do with what you say, what you do or what you look like or skills you have, talents or what you have. It is the power of your presence. It is the heat and light from your burning log, it touches everyone who comes in contact with. We all have the power to create our life. The key is finding the tool that enables us to make choices from the bottom of our soul.
