Publisher's summary

The Sanskrit word pranayama means to release life energy from its bounds. When practiced correctly, this powerful form of yogic breathwork has the ability to reveal the intricate web of your thoughts, physiology, and energetic patterns, to quiet your mind and heighten receptivity, and to open you to the intrinsic radiance of Being. On Yoga Breathing, Richard Freeman, director of the Yoga Workshop in Boulder, Colorado, invites you to learn the essential principles and techniques of pranayama, including:

  • How to identify and observe your internal breath
  • Ujjayi breathing to free prana (your life energy)
  • The tree of breath practice
  • Specific guidance for lying and seated pranayama
  • And much more

Every breath you take, teaches Freeman, can serve as a guiding thread into the depths of yoga, a place of freedom and immediacy of awareness that begins on the practice mat and gradually extends into each moment of your life. Yoga Breathing distills the secrets of this essential inner work into two complete home practice sessions designed to guide you, breath by breath, to greater vitality and health. Note: Excerpted from the full-length audio course Yoga Matrix.

I love it

I do practice yoga daily, and was looking for precise instructions on pranayama. I know Mr. Freeman's other books seen videos interviews with him. His language is rich, precise, descriptive and intuitive. He masters words so that one can arrive to the conclusion he was about to make using many descriptive metaphors to help to get to a mental state.
Thank you!
