Pranayama Yoga Explanation
Pranayama is the fundamental building block of many exercises in yoga and relaxation methods; its literal meaning is “restraint of the breath.” Combined with activities to reduce tension, it works to control energies in the body and can help one move toward a healthier body and mind. Often, Pranayama is thought of as “control of life force” and, while it is most often used in relaxation techniques, it is also helpful in treating common problems when more intrusive medical treatments are not desired.
