Yoga teaches us we are much more than a physical body. We also have a mental body, a wisdom body, a bliss body and a pranic body that are effected by everything we do. Our pranic body is our energy body, prana is our life force. Breath practices along with many other things affect our vitality. This 60 min practice utilizes the breath in several ways to help harmonize our energy while the physical practice is a balance of more warming, followed by cooling postures. Enjoy!!
