Breath control as a technique for establishing a meditative state is common to all yogic disciplines.
In eastern traditions it is the breath that keeps the vital life-force circulating throughout the body.
“To control the breath is to increase life’s essence.” ~ Charles Muir
For tantric couples, breath control is one of the most important techniques for achieving the interpersonal harmony required to sustain and nurture the relationship.
A Yogic Breath Consists of 4 Parts:
1. Slow Inhalation.
2. Several seconds of held breath.
3. Slow exhalation.
4. A moment’s holding of the breath out or pause before beginning the next inhalation.
