What is yogic breathing?
Yogic breathing, or pranayama, is one of the components that make yoga unique. Learning to utilize the breath properly, including control of the flow and lung capacity, can greatly improve your asana practice. In vinyasa-flow yoga, the breath is synchronized with movement. We employ ujjayi pranayama which helps to filter the breath, bringing heat into the lungs and warming the body. Proper respiration can help you deepen into a posture, release stress, and focus your mind.
