"The techniques of pranayama provide the method whereby the life force can be activated and regulated in order to go beyond one’s normal boundaries and limitations and attain a higher state of vibratory energy and awareness" - Swami Satyananda Saraswati
Pranayama, the fourth limb of yoga, is described as regulating the breath so as to make it slow and subtle, leading to experience a steady flow of energy – Prana – and a state of profound presence and calm. The word pranayama means “lengthening the life force”.
From a more scientific perspective, many studies and research have shown how practicing different breathwork techniques regularly helps reducing and managing chronic stress and anxiety, as well as promoting focus, clarity, relaxation, better quality of sleep and improving lung function.
There is also a ‘’magical’’ aspect to the breath, and it lies in its ability to connect us with the subtle energies of the universe and nature, to manifest and transform.
You are invited to dive deeper and explore the power of your breath as a tool for self-regulation, healing and transformation.
During the 60 min class, Gigi will guide you through a balanced mix of pranayama techniques, blending into the practice gentle movements, meditations and an extended savasana.
Each session it’s designed to switch the ‘reset button’ of your nervous system and bring the body to a natural state of balance and heightened awareness, leaving you feeling relaxed, nourished and regenerated.
