In this video, David teaches you how to use pranayama (yoga breathing exercises) to move energy through your body, clear out energetic blockages and help you feel lighter, less inhibited and more relaxed. You will be doing deep abdominal breathing, the cleansing breath, kapalabhati, retentions, yogic locks (bandhas) and meditation. If you're looking to progress with pranayama, the class that is meant to go before this class is David's Pranayama Yoga To Wake Up.

Really felt the energy move and get cleared, especially while being a bit under the weather. Thank you David, love the pranayama series

The relax jaw and drop shoulder cues were particularly helpful. Also felt the benefit of holding breath and sitting tall in stillness.

I really like the combination of breath exercises. This is a great addition to my asana practice - thank you

Thank you, but I have a question: When you do the contractions you start with a half breath, and then do you do a little inhale and exhale within the contractions? How is the counting for the contractions?
