Benefits of Pranayama in yoga
The Pranayama,yoga for asthma, practice consists of a four
part breathing cycle which focuses on:
• inhalation – intake of air
• internal retention – controlling retention of air within
the lungs
• exhalation – expulsion of used air from the lungs
• external retention – controlling retention of empty lungs
The benefits of Pranayama are as follows:
• increases the flow of oxygen to all parts of the body
• increases lung capacity
• improves control and strength of the diaphragm and abdomen
• increases relaxation by releasing tension
• increase breath efficiency
Pranayama, or yoga breathing, has helped with
many medical conditions as certified in clinical studies. This yoga for asthma
has been proven a beneficial to every individual when we learn to breathe
properly. Breathing is the most important aspect in life, and is the most vital
process of the body because it is linked into our everyday experience. It is
important for us human beings to breathe properly in order for us to have
balanced oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the blood.

Perfect bliss - yoga
Self acceptance
is the beginning
of true meditation.
When you fully allow
everything to be
exactly as it is
then you transcend
that level of experience.
You allow the body to
be as it is
and your awareness
expands beyond the body.
You allow the emotions
to be as they are
and your awareness
expands beyond emotion.
You allow thoughts to
be as they are,
and your awareness
expands beyond the thinking.
If there is any urge
to change something,
improve something,
then there is conflict
and you remain stuck
in that which you wish
to change.
Many see happiness
as some future goal:
'If I can heal my emotions,
if I can stop reacting in this way,
if I can be free of these memories,
if I can stop my thoughts
then I will be happy.'
And so there are all
of these different modes
of healings and therapies
and belief systems
giving you the illusion that
if you just work on yourself
hard enough and long enough
then you can be a perfect person.
And nothing could be farther
from the truth.
I am not knocking
self improvement,
it has its purpose,
but it also gives you the illusion
that some time in the future
you will be good enough.
Which means you are not
good enough now.
The underlying
condition of self improvement
is that how you are in this moment
is wrong.
You are a glitch in the system
and you need to be fixed.
Yet from your natural state
of pure awareness
everything is perfect
as it is.
Not as a judgment
but that which is self evident.
So when you enter meditation,
accept yourself as you are.
This is not
'I love myself as I am'
or any other psychological therapy.
It is to accept everything as it is
all the way to the core.
You let it all be exactly as it is
without any involvement.
You let go of trying
to do it,
trying to control it
and allow that
which cannot be known
to take over.
Because then you relax into
the essence of that experience.
And the essence
of all experience
is consciousness.
One all encompassing
Perfect consciousness
that lights up the whole show.
That is
the whole show.
And the nature
of consciousness
is bliss.
Perfect bliss.
