Our

breath is our dearest companion. A companion who never loses sight of

what emotion we are experiencing at any given moment of time. Think

about it – isn’t your breath really fast when you are angry and smooth

and mellow when you are calm? This signifies that breath is not only

linked to the body but also to the mind. And we all want a happy state

of mind, right? This is where pranayama can help. By paying attention to

your breath through breathing exercises, you can bring the mind to a

pleasant state by enhancing and regulating the life force in the system.
The

term pranayama is made up of two words – prana (life force energy or

breath) and yama (regulating or causing a break). As such, by breaking

the normal breathing pattern, which happens in pranayama, we attend to

the breath, and in turn to the health of our body and mind. Pranayamas

fill the body with plenty of prana which makes you feel energetic and

positive. On the other hand, a low level of prana in the body can be a

reason for increased feelings of anxiety or stress.
