A Yogic Perspective on Breathing and Thinking, the How and the Why of Pranayama and Meditation

There is a presumption here in the west that given we are awake we should be immersed in "doing" and "thinking". This is not the yogic perspective! There is a significant distinction between being and doing and many of us have not experienced this. It is through meditation that this difference can be known and it is through appropriate pranayama that meditation can be experienced. Pranayama is not just breathing anymore than thinking is meditating. Knowing and experiencing the difference will be the theme of this workshop.
