pranayama postures

In order to benefit fully from your practice of pranayama and meditation it is important to;

​

• Sit upright, back ribs and muscles firm and alert. Head and neck held erect and perpendicular to the floor.  

• Ensure the chest is not constricted in any way, abdomen and lungs able to expand fully, allowing a free flow of energy through the nadis and chakras.

• The weight is evenly distributed between the right and left sides of the body. The legs and hips become the anchors that help you keep grounded and centered.

• You are able to maintain this position comfortably for the duration of the practice, so that the posture doesn’t become a distraction.
