Podcasts about pranyama

In this episode, we talk a lot about breath!We look at the physical and mental benefits from 2 different perspectives with 2 experts in the field.

Julia McCabe is on the podcast this week. She is a catalyst in the lives of both Crystal and Andrea, who attended her 300-hour yoga teacher trainings (separately). She is a teachers teacher and a curious student for life that is back in school working on her Masters's in Neuroscience and Psychology of Mental Health at King's College in London, UK. We are three really good friends that move in and out of friendly banter to deep teachings from the ancient and neuroscience lenses. This podcast talks about selective attention, how our attention spans are waning, how to breathe and why it's important, teacher trainings, our triggers and how to deal with them. Today's teachings are ladder breath and adding a ‘what I did' list to your nightly journal practice.

Pranayama is a Sanskrit word that translates to energy control and through ancient breathing techniques, we can learn to harness this energy and apply it to daily life. When we work on controlling the breath, we are controlling our ‘Prana'. In all living forms prana flows through it, like the waves flow through the sea. Prana is our life-force, sometimes referred to as energy or chi. Where can prana be found? From the sun as its primary source, it lives in our food, trees, humans, everywhere. The way we think, act, move and breathe is determined by how much energy (prana) we are cultivating and how we channel it. Prana is the universal energy that is transported through the breath and fuels our energetical systems. If we can understand our breath, we can understand our mind and body. Similar to ‘You are what you eat', you are what you breathe.  In this article I would like to show how accessible this knowledge can be and introduce the benefits of breathing techniques. Here I collect some old new thought readings on the science of breathing from Elizabeth Towne, Hereward Carrington and Captain R.D. Parker. How can you use your breath to expand your consciousness and change your reality? Becoming aware of different breathing techniques and understanding my breathing has changed my life. In this episode, I try to share some of what I have learned studying advanced breathwork and pranayama techniques. Breathing is everything. In reality creation, it may be the most essential element. The most fundamental and powerful way to connect with your subconscious and the superconscious is your breathing.   Music By MettaverseNocturnesubtle energiesthe shift639 hz heart chakragolden lotuscosmic riverdeep relaxation ➤ Listen on Soundcloud: http://bit.ly/2KjGlLI ➤ Follow them on Instagram: http://bit.ly/2JW8BU2➤ Join them on Facebook: http://bit.ly/2G1j7G6➤ Subscribe to their channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyvjffON2NoUvX5q_TgvVkw Alan Watts Playlist  - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKv1KCSKwOo_n1g-X4hVtAai5G84Qz4x- All My Neville Goddard Videos In One Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKv1KCSKwOo8kBZsJpp3xvkRwhbXuhg0M For all episodes of the Reality Revolution – https://www.therealityrevolution.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/RealityRevolutionPodcast/ Join our facebook group The Reality Revolution  https://www.facebook.com/groups/403122083826082/ Subscribe to my Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOgXHr5S3oF0qetPfqxJfSw Contact us at media@advancedsuccessinsitute.com  #lawofattraction #breathing #totalhumanoptimization #breathwork #meditation #guidedmeditation #brianscott #justbreathe#breathwork #breathing #lawofattraction #meditation #pranayama

Melissa Abbott teaching 26/2 60 min Express Yoga Class  Blue Yoga Group Swampscott, MA Feb 2020 This shortened express version of the 90 min Bikram Style 26/2 ( Twenty Six Postues and 2 Pranyama breathing exercises ) makes the most of the timing using flow sequences to get 2 sets of important postures into the class such as Half Moon Sequence, Much of the Standing Postures, and Most of the Floor postures. There is still a 2 minutes Savasana between Standing and Floor Postures.  After attempting many versions of a shortened 60 min class, this hits all the high points and gives a great Hatha Yoga Session.

1:00 Suffers from asthma since a chlld and a dust allergy. Went to yoga, couldn’t do breathing, disliked pranayama; drinking and smoking for to self-medicate. Yoga allowed her to relax, but not stopping drinking.  Had a horrible year of extreme stress; very fragile, realised had serious issues. Decided to become a yoga teacher. 5:20 Started YTT and thought she knew everything but realised shortly that she knew very little. Had to learn pranayama. Gave up dairy, and finally able to breathe and relax. Everything changed, cut down on alcohol and smoking. Could sleep. 7:00 manage emotions better because of breath, instead of reacting to emotional charge, take a couple of deep breaths then responded, developed an overall state of calm. More balanced. 8:16 5-6 months gave up alcohol entirely. Practiced gratitude for better health. Credit sobriety for learning to breathe.  Manages asthma better with breath. Control emotions with breath 11:12 Teaching yoga emphasizes breath. Focus on breath as move through the postures. Love to teach people to breathe for stress as a management tool. Connecting to your breath connects you to your emotions, mind. Focusses on breathing with asanas, gradually expand lung capacity. Take people back to basics. Gradually introduce other pranayama techniques. 15:42 Learning to breathe help with her emotions, particularly extreme emotions. All emotions numbed by drinking, now feel emotions which is quite new, can be overwhelming. Connecting with the breath takes the edge off of the emotions. Lets go of emotional charge and just looks at the problem. Link between nervous system, stress and breath. Stress response keeps us alive, changes body functions including breath. Slow breath down leads to nervous system relaxing. 20:45 Fritz Perls said that “Fear is excitement without the breath”. Moving between fear and excitement can be regulated by the breath. Make it a regular practice. 23:29 Regular pranayama practice as part of personal practice. Paying attention to what her body needs, Esther’s personal practice is meditation/breathing. Everyone can just take 5 minutes to just notice their breathing to check in and watch the breath. 25:20 Esther’s mission is to teach the world to breathe. People struggle with finding time for a practice. Awareness is the start, if can’t commit to a daily practice, then just notice several times a day how your breath is. What is happening, emotions, breath and what is the link between all of these. Awareness can slow breathing . How you breathe is how you live.

1:14 Introduction to Vinaya Saunders 1:50 Began with corporate yoga and was pregnant while she was teaching. Some female students became uncomfortable and didn’t come to class as the baby grew. One student said it was painful to see someone so pregnant as she had had great difficulty becoming pregnant. Vinaya started studying Gynocologic Ayurveda in depth and found what the ancient teachings said about fertility Western Medicine solves symptoms, rarely the root cause. Vinaya works with clients using the Ayurvedic practices to develop a healthy uterus, some of her clients have become pregnant and had healthy babies. Birth control and infertility treatments affect the hormones in many ways and are deleterious to fertility. Pranyama is good for vata imbalances and many fertility issues are based in vata imbalances. 11:50 Vinaya likes to work with women in their 40’s because they have tried everything that Western Medicine has to offer and are looking beyond that paradigm. Western Medicine prescribes birth control pills for teenagers with heavy periods, women experiencing menopause and those with endometriosis. Long term use of birth control can have very deleterious affects on a women’s fertility. 14:45 Vinayam – a humble approach to yoga. Vinaya created this type of yoga based on specific poses for each day of the week. Each day of the week is associated with a planet in Hinduism. Each planet has different aspects and the yoga poses are chosen to support their aspects. 21:50 Vinaya’s journey from corporate yoga to fertility support. Her original training was for young people in their 20’s but her students needed a different kind of yoga. Started studying classical Ayurveda. She looked at fields where Western Medicine has few prescriptions to offer individuals like gynecology, dermatology, and obstetrics. She studied Ayurveda in great depth in these areas. Individuals need to understand the causes of their conditions/diseases not just the symptoms. 30:40 Western medicine works with fear so that people give up their body, mind and spirit to the doctor to fix. Gurus can do something similar; they want control also but use a person’s beliefs and trust. Each individual has to trust their own body, mind, spirit and find support for it to heal itself. And heredity has little effect on health, but rather the patterns of thought that have been passed down from parents or grandparents have more effect on health.

1:05 Introduction of Caroline 2:20 Corporate Yoga – started as part of wellbeing programs in work place. Caroline was contacted to provide yoga classes and meditation courses. Some corporations are committed to their staff’s wellbeing but less common in last few years. Benefits to students and to the organisation. Company benefits include increasing profits through employee retention and improved employee output. Need a champion to talk to senior management about implementing the program and can also help with logistics. Co-contribution by staff reinforce commitment to attend. 10:20 Corporate classes: Caroline teaches them so that the postures, breathing and relaxation can be replicated in their offices, at home or while travelling. Teaches what the poses do – i.e., opening hips. All classes include work on the mat, standing, and in a chair. Pranyama and meditation. 13:00 Meditation – changed Caroline’s life. Due to health issues, wanted to improve her health and immune system. Asked Craig Hassad (a colleague) for information but he just told her to start meditating. Just 5 minutes to start and tell him how it was. Using meditation assisted in bringing her white blood cell count from zero to near normal. This led to completing teacher training and creating her own yoga studio. Realised climbing the corporate ladder wasn’t very fulfilling. She is now calmer, sleeps better, her problem-solving is better. 23:00 She has created a Japanese garden around her studio to create stillness and serenity. 25:18 Caroline’s study of yoga therapy and Ayurveda led her to realise that these two can help individuals with their issues. Hopes it will become an integral part of the health system.   Contact: Email: caroline@experienceyoga.com.au www.experienceyoga.com.au FB and Instagram: experienceyoga
