One of the most precious gifts of yoga is the gift of pranayama. By influencing the way we breathe, we can influence our mind and our emotions, and create internal harmony.
In the wake of the Covid lockdown, many of us are negotiating change and uncertainty, so we must find ways to ground ourselves. During this time we will explore pranayama techniques that create stability and ease.
The practices that I will share with you here are designed to help you refine your ujjayi breath, to lengthen your exhalation, and to help you to listen to yourself.
If you feel that you need some movement before doing a seated practice, please feel free to do some kneeling sun salutations, or some simple standing forward bends. Use ujjayi breathing throughout your movement practice.

Pranayama for stability

This is a pranayama course which consists of five practices. These recordings and practice notes have been created to support students who are attending weekly group classes. A daily pranayama practice between classes will help you to progress through the stages.
If you are following this course at your own pace, you can stay at each level for more than a week. Building your breath capacity slowly and gradually will bring more lasting benefits.
Session 1 forms the foundation for the practices that follow. Make sure that you are comfortable at each stage before your progress to the next one.
We are using a simple earth mantra in these practice. There are three versions, each of a slightly different length. By adding to the mantra, we can extend the breath.
The most important thing to remember in any pranayama practice, is to stay relaxed. The goal is to make the breath subtle and smooth. It will lengthen over time, if you do not force it.

This practice has been created for those of you who have been attending classes at freed-om-yoga this year. I offer you this sequence, so that you may continue with your practice while we cannot meet at the studio.
In this morning practice you will use āsanas, prānāyāma and mantras to invoke Gāyatri, the morning sun, so that she may nourish and support you.
Please note that this is not a beginners’ practice, as it assumes a level of understanding of the vinyasas and prānāyāma that a beginner may not have. I therefore ask that you do not share it with those who have not practiced with me.
Namaste.
With love,
Lynda
