Breath that transforms.
Breath on four levels
Physiological
The biochemistry of breathing.
Psychological
Nervous system regulation, psychosomatics and recognising the body's signals.
Energetic
Subtle anatomy and the flow of prana as seen in traditional yoga.
Spiritual
How all three levels connect with spirit and soul in the Vedic context — including the difference between kundalini and prana.
Modern breath approaches often focus only on tangible experience or on regulation. In this programme we add the yoga tradition and Vedic knowledge, without which breathwork remains incomplete.
Who this programme is for
Breath is the best cleanser of stale emotions and a powerful source of inner peace. Nail board practice lets you believe in your own inner strength: it all begins in the head.
