An encouraging, practical guide to understanding prāṇa--the yogic life force that goes beyond the breath to nourish body, mind, and spirit.

The first volume in the Yoga Masters Series, which offers the timeless wisdom of essential yoga practices for the contemporary seeker.

For thousands of years, yogis have understood what science now confirms: How we breathe can transform how we feel, think, and live. But in traditional yoga, prāṇa is more than breath--it's the subtle energy that connects the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of our lives.

Drawing from the timeless wisdom of the Vedas, Upanishads, Tantra, and Ayurveda and modern scientific insights, yoga educator Prasad Rangnekar offers a grounded, accessible exploration of prāṇa as breath practice and beyond. With clear explanations and practical exercises, you'll discover how principles of prāṇa and practices of prāṇāyāma can support:

  • Respiratory health and physical vitality
  • Emotional balance and nervous system regulation
  • Mental clarity and focus
  • Meditation, inner stillness, and self-realization

Both an introduction and a deepening for serious practitioners, this book invites you into a richer relationship with your own life force--and with the living, breathing tradition of yoga itself.
