Yoga Nidra & Pranayama Workshop

About the Workshop

Prana is the vital force that rides on the breath and enlivens us. Pranayama means expansion of this vital force. We use pranayama techniques to balance our energy, to reign in our minds and our senses, to heal, to create internal transformation and to lift our consciousness.

We are made up of five vibratory fields (koshas) that surround our spirit. One of these fields is the pranamaya kosha which is the fuel for the other vibratory fields. Just as the physical body is made up of our muscles, joints, organs, etc., the pranamaya kosha is made up of of five forms of prana. These five forms of prana are called vayus, and govern different functions within us.

In this workshop we will balance these vayus using a pranayama technique developed by Mona and Alan called ISHTA Vayu Shodana. We will also incorporate various other pranayama techniques and visualizations into the asana, restorative and yoga nidra practice. When our prana is balanced we are able to connect back to spirit and feel energized and inspired in our day to day living.
