Pranayama (breathing technique) is an important practice of Hatha Yoga, which is the mother of all physical or postoperative yoga. They are such a prominent device in the tradition that the word hatha itself is closely associated with it. Have to understand how?

What is the meaning of pranayama?

The word pranayama can technically be translated as breath control (prana =breathing, yama =control). However, it is also associated with a broader interpretation in Hatha Yoga texts. life Stands for vitality of Antrnihitawrsbd  of all life activities Ayama means the entire region. Therefore, Pranayama techniques are practiced to introduce us to the whole field of life-force that is present in all life-activities. Once we come to know that we are soon able to purify, harmonize and finally control it.

But why is it an important practice in Hatha Yoga?

-Skti(Pranpran)revolves around our body layers through specific channels Jinhenkha is nerves.There are 3 main nadis: Pingala Nadi, Ida Nadi and Sushumna Nadi.

Pingala Nadi, The Sun and Hat of Hatha

All life-activities require energy which breaks down and gives heat to Pingala Nadi. This channel starts from the right side of the base of the spine and ends at the right nostril. It has the Sun as a symbol and is associated with HaHatthedathatha,

nadi, the moon and

energy is needed to conserve theall life-activities and consequently is associated with the coolness Ida nadi. This channel starts from the left side of the base of the spine and ends at the left nostril. Itthe moon as a symbol and hands linked wasMensbd.

Both channels travel upward in a spiral way, which means they move from right to left and right. The term hattha stands for these two opposing channels (nadis), the sun and the moon, and in a broader perspective, the process of bringing harmony between contrasts to reach final equilibrium. Ultimately, it is only when these channels are balanced that the path towards this final equilibrium opens. In other words, when Pingala Nadi and Ida Nadi are balanced, our main channel opens: Susumna Nadi.

Susumna pulse is the channel that lies in the middle of the spine. Kundalini Jagaran Jagran of (orour Prana-Shakti) stands for the opening of this main channel. This whole process brings about a complete transformation that leads to the attainment (towardssamadhithe ultimate goal of yoga). We can understand perception as the experience of self-recognition as being with the universe. This is achieved when the Kundalini Nesse has traveled spinal cord , reaching the highest center in theand brain.

Therefore, Pranayama is a major practice that balances our energetic channels (nadis) andour Kundalini leadsinto the final path towards enlightenment.
