A mindful approach to breathing

Breath awareness can be a simple way to pause, settle your mind and become more aware of your body. You don’t need previous yoga or pranayama experience to begin. Practise gently, without forcing your breath or holding it, and return to natural breathing whenever needed. If you experience dizziness, discomfort or breathlessness, stop the exercise. If you have a heart or lung condition, consult your healthcare practitioner before practising.

Take a gentle pause, breathe mindfully and reconnect with yourself.

Namaste!
