Healing Breathwork by Guided Meditation Treks

As one of the eight limbs of yoga, pranayama (the formal practice of controlling the breath), is a valuable technique for meditators and yoga practitioners. There are many forms of this practice, and a major branch of pranayama breathing involves increasing the concentration of oxygen available to the body through specific breathing practices.

This is an ancient practice that has been used by modern day practitioners for many purposes. For example, free divers in the East use it to concentrate oxygen in their blood so they can stay underwater longer. Some have used the technique to prevent hypothermia while being immersed in cold water. Also, you do this technique naturally and unconsciously every time you run 'out of breath' when trying to climb a mountain or a big set of stairs.

Pranayama is used for spiritual work in many circles. Some of the modern day versions of this form of pranayama are "Rebirthing" and "Holotropic Breathwork," both of which are cousins to the practice introduced in this album and app from Guided Meditation Treks entitled "Healing Breathwork."
