The Power of Breath by Swami Saradananda

Discover how the art of breathing can enhance your wellbeing and relieve stress with this engaging guide from one of the world's leading yoga gurus

Breathing is the most fundamental of our body's physical processes and our most intimate companion--yet most of us give it little to no thought. However, once fully acknowledged and harnessed, the power of the breath is unlimited. It can ease stress and anxiety, boost energy and stamina, enhance self-confidence, sharpen the ability to focus, strengthen the quality of voice, and even relieve pain.

With The Power of Breath, renowned yoga teacher Swami Saradananda aims to give gentle yet powerful guidance on the art of breathing, from the basic practices to its myriad effects on the mind and body. She explores the five types of breath--vitalizing (prana), nourishing (samana), expansive (vyana), cleansing (apana) and expressive (udana)--and provides breathing exercises for each one. She also offers mini programs for targeting specific common ailments and issues such as asthma, skin disorders, depression, lethargy and phobias--plus ways to harness your breath to enhance vocal, dramatic, or sports performance.

With evocative artwork, inspiring photography, and easy-to-follow guidance, this book will enhance and affirm your daily life through the power of breathwork.
