Pranayama

Pranayama is an aspect of Yoga that deals with breathing. Pranayama is a method of controlling prana or life force through the regulation of breathing. It is the breathing process or the control of the motion of inhalation, exhalation and the retention of vital energy.

Those suffering from high blood pressure or from any heart disease should not do this Pranayama.

While breathing in the abdominal area should not blow up. You have to fill the air in the chest area, i.e. up to diaphragm, so that the part of the chest with its ribs swells.

In summer season, reduce the number of repetitions of this Pranayama.

One must do this Pranayama for the duration of three to five minutes every day.
