Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most common issues clients face is lack of energy, vitality or prana and this book presents a simple yet revolutionary breathing approach to restore balance. Grounded in the yogic teachings, this text introduces the Buteyko breathing method as a more contemporary way of understanding the original intention of pranayama. Through extensive research, Robin Rothenberg establishes that as with Dr. Buteyko's breath retraining technique, the ancient yogis prescribed breathing less not more. Vedic science and physiology are broken down and explained in accessible ways. The book presents a new understanding and application of breathing to address a wide range of ailments, including COPD, asthma, hay-fever, autoimmune disorders, anxiety, sleep apnoea and neurological conditions.

Book excerpt: Prana is the universal principle of energy or force. It is a vital, all pervading force. It may be either in a static or dynamic state. It is found in all forms, from the highest to the lowest, from the ant to the elephant, from the unicellular amoeba to man, from the elementary form of plant life to the developed of animal life. Prana is force on every plane of being, from the highest to the lowest. Whatever moves or works or has life is but an expression or manifestation of Prana. It is Prana that shines in your eyes. It is through the power of Prana that the ears hear, the eyes see, the skin feels, the tongue tastes, the nose smells and the brain and the intellect perform their functions. The smile of a young lady, the melody in music, the power in the emphatic words of an orator, the charm in the speech of one’s beloved, are all due to Prana. Fire burns and the wind blows through Prana. Rivers flow and planes move in the air through Prana. The steam engines work and trains and cars move through Prana. Radio waves travel through Prana. Prana is electron, force, magnetism and electricity. It is Prana that pumps the blood from the heart to the arteries or blood vessels. Prana does digestion, excretion and secretion. It is expended in thinking, willing, acting, moving, talking and writing. A healthy, strong man has an abundance of Prana or nerve-force or vitality. It is supplied by food, water, air, solar energy, etc. The supply of Prana is taken up by the nervous system. It is absorbed in the process of breathing. The excess is stored in the brain and nerve centers. When the seminal energy is sublimated or transformed, it supplies an abundance of Prana to the system. It is stored up in the brain in the form of spiritual energy.

Book excerpt: In his third book Gregor Maehle aims at bringing about a renaissance of pranayama, the yogic school of breathing. For millennia pranayama was considered to be the quintessential yogic limb, yoga's main motor for spiritual evolution. To show pranayama's importance Maehle supports his findings at every turn with hundreds of quotations from yogic scripture. With unprecedented detail the author shows how pranayama is used to connect posture practice to yogic meditation and why it will accelerate your progress in both. Also covered are: - how pranayama creates health and its use in therapeutic application - mental and spiritual benefits of pranayama - the function of prana and the effects of pranayama - effect of pranayama on brain hemisphericity and balance of the nervous system - purpose of breath retentions and their precise technical application - in depth guidelines for the practice of pranayama - illustrations of the major pranayama and kriya techniques - the use of mantra and digital counting during pranayama - the appropriate diet and postures for pranayama - the importance and use of bandhas and kriyas before and during pranayama - how to set free your breathing pattern through exercising breath waves - descriptions of the classical pranayamas such as Nadi Shodhana, Bhastrika, Surya Bhedana with never before seen detail - how pranayama relates to raising Kundalini - a workable order in which techniques are to be learned and put into sequence with other yogic limbs - pranayama as it relates to the stages of life Gregor Maehle is practising and researching all aspects of yoga since 1982. He lived for several years in India studying with a variety of yogic masters and sadhus. He has previously published Ashtanga Yoga Practice and Philosophy and Ashtanga Yoga The Intermediate Series, which have been translated into several languages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Dean of the acclaimed Kripalu School of Yoga and founder of Pranakriya School of Yoga Healing Arts come the wisdom and tools to help you leverage your yoga practice as a vehicle for profound self-growth. Pranayama (yogic breathwork) is a journey of self-discovery that is, above all, about being authentic. It invites you to shed ideas of who you think you should be, in order to open to the person you really are. Yoga master Yoganand Michael Carroll and his longtime student Allison Gemmel Laframboise dive deep into the mystery and techniques of the ancient hatha yoga traditions to reclaim valuable teachings that have been lost to contemporary practitioners. What's uncovered is pranayama as a system for increased healing, vibrancy, and liberation. If you want to get more from your yoga, Pranayama: A Path to Healing and Freedom is your guide to living from your truth, with complete acceptance and ultimate vitality.

Book excerpt: Yoga Nidra helps to expand that natural moment, that twilight zone, when we are neither fully conscious nor fully asleep (just before going to sleep at night and just before becoming fully awake in the morning) from a few moments to 15 minutes and then to half an hour and so on, because during this period, we experience a great deal of physical quiet, emotional peace, mental clarity and potential blossoming of our creative potential. The main aim of Yoga Nidra is psychotherapy or chittashuddhi: All the residue of the past, the suppressed emotional junk and dross accumulated in our sub/unconscious minds creates a screen/veil between us and our Atman/soul, preventing the union. Yoga Nidra helps to purify our mind by getting rid of all that dross and junk, removes that veil/screen, allowing our true personality, strength and happiness to shine through, leading to yoga (Union with Atman/soul). Yoga nidra.

Each practice also includes a 'jewel thought' meditation, which can accompany the breath technique and/or mudra.
