Clear FiltersSahaj Pranayam No. 2
सहज प्राणायाम २
Builds on No. 1 by introducing a gentle pause (kumbhaka) at the top of the inhale. This momentary retention deepens lung expansion and begins training breath control.
Sahaj Pranayam No. 3
सहज प्राणायाम ३
Introduces a three-part breath (puraka, kumbhaka, rechaka) with extended exhale. The longer exhale activates the parasympathetic nervous system, producing deep relaxation and mental calm.
Anulom Vilom
अनुलोम विलोम
Alternate nostril breathing — the most scientifically studied pranayama. Anulom Vilom balances the two hemispheres of the brain, harmonises the autonomic nervous system, and produces a measurable drop in blood pressure within 15 minutes of practice.
Bhraman Pranayam
भ्रामण प्राणायाम
Walking breath meditation — rhythmic nasal breathing coordinated with gentle walking. Bhraman Pranayam integrates breath awareness into movement, making it ideal for those who struggle to sit still for pranayama.
Kapal Bhati
कपालभाति
Skull-shining breath — a dynamic pranayama using forceful exhales to cleanse the lungs and stimulate abdominal organs. One of the most effective practices for weight management, digestion, and mental clarity. The name means "that which makes the forehead shine."
Sahaj Pranayam No. 6
सहज प्राणायाम ६
An advanced completion breath practice that integrates all elements taught in the Sahaj series — natural breath, retention, extended exhale, and awareness. It brings the pranayama session to a complete, centred close.
