My Experience with Pranayama
Yoga and Total Health
|October 2023
As the breath, so is the mind
"Chale Vathe Chalam Chittam, Nishchale Nishchalam Bhavet"
This verse from Hatha Yoga Pradipika explains that when the breath wanders, the mind is unsteady, but when the breath is still, the mind is still.
This was exactly my first experience with Pranayama.
