Science of Breath by Swami Rama

2014 Reprint of 1960 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition. Not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. For thousands of years, yogis have believed that breath is the essential link between body and mind, energizing a subtle body which connects the physical and mental aspects of our being. In this book, Swami Rama and two noted American physicians explore the science of breath as the missing key to both physical health and the attainment of higher states of consciousness. Basic yogic breathing techniques are explained so that one can immediately begin working with the ancient science of breath. The book on yoga at many points, and although chiefly concerned with the development and control of the physical, it also treats the psychic side, and even enters the field spiritual development.

In the United States, Swami Rama founded the Himalayan International Institute of Yoga Science and Philosophy. and was known for his work as a yogi, teacher, philosopher, poet, humanist, and philanthropist. His preventative medicine, holistic health, and stress management methods have been widely accepted in western medicine. He left this physical plane in 1996, yet the seeds he planted are still sprouting, blooming, and bearing fruit.
