The Guided Belly Pranayama is a practice that supercharges your entire body, tunes you into a relaxed and focused state and induces feelings of bliss. This guided video is a practice we have created that combines belly breathing and pranayama breathing.
Belly Breathing encourages full oxygen exchange — that is, the beneficial trade of incoming oxygen for outgoing carbon dioxide which slows the heartbeat and lower/stabilized blood pressure. Belly breathing is made easier with the hand movements that automatically cause one to breathe in and out of the diaphragm. Pranayama enhances the benefits of belly breathing through long empty breath holds that absorb much more of the vital energy around you.
The combination is quite powerful and has a multitude of benefits. Some including improved lung function, enhanced cognitive performance, healthier digestive system and decrease in stress. For a deeper look into the practice, we suggest watching our Belly Pranayama Instructional video.
Beyond the natural benefits that come from the practice, the audio is programmed with focus on the breath, extra willpower to enhance ability to push through, pranayama field that increases prana accumulation, field to maintain stable lung function to keep you safe and unconditional love.
Over time, you can do the practice on your own and without the hand movements so as long as you breathe from the diaphragm. If you feel satisfied after one round of mouth breaths or nose breaths, then that is fine as well. Pace yourself how you’d like. The practice is best done all together.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This is an advanced pranayama practice. It is quite intensive and if you feel like you can’t go further, then feel free to stop. If you have asthma, we do not recommend this practice.
