Pranayama: The Art of Breathwork
June 28 at 11:15am | Just Bee Yoga; Long Grove
A 2-Hour Immersion into the Subtle Power of Breath
Join Lisa Devi for a grounding and expansive journey into pranayama, the ancient yogic art of conscious breath regulation. In this workshop, we’ll explore what pranayama is, how it works, and why it is considered a gateway between the physical and subtle bodies.
Through discussion and guided practice, you’ll learn:
The purpose and benefits of pranayama from both yogic and physiological perspectives
How breath relates to the five koshas (layers of being) and the subtle energy body (pranamaya kosha)
Key pranayama techniques, including:
Ujjayi (Victorious Breath) for focus and flow
Dirgha Breath (Three-Part Breath) for grounding
Box Breath (Sama Vritti) for deep regulation and nervous system reset
Bhramari (Hummingbee Breath) for soothing the nervous system
Sheetali (Cooling Breath) for calming heat and emotional intensity
Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing) for balance
Kapalabhati (Skull Polishing Breath) for mental clarity and cleansing
Bhastrika (Bellows Breath) for energizing and clearing
We’ll move through each practice step-by-step with moments of rest and reflection, allowing you to tune in to your own inner experience. Whether you’re new to pranayama or deepening an existing practice, this workshop will leave you feeling more connected, calm, and clear.
All levels welcome!
