Pranayama opens and purifies the dormant centres in the body and the brain.

It connects us with the subtle movement of energy that flows through the three nadis or energy channels of the subtle body – the ida in the left, pingala in the right and the sushumna in the middle. When we attune ourselves to this inner flow, the restless mind begins to dissolve. We become more centred and inwardly still. This inner quietness helps preserve soma, the subtle nectar that supports mental clarity, peace, and heightened awareness during meditation.

Pranayama balances and purifies the nadis, rejuvenates and vitalises the internal organs and glands, and calms the nervous system. The overall effect of pranayama is calming. Even the active ones produce the same relaxing effect.

After practising pranayama, concentration arises naturally. It is easy to enter dharana, a state of sustained focus at this stage. Pranayama is deeply transformative. It clears tamas, the inertia that clouds the body and dulls the senses. By purifying the nadis, it opens the energetic channels and allows the inner body to brim with healing energy. The autonomic functions slow down for deep restoration and rejuvenation.
