Guided Pranayama with Kumbhaka (Breath Retention): Rewire Out of Fight or Flight

Niv walks you through fundamental insights on kumbhaka - breath retention: an essential component of advanced pranayama techniques - and then guides you through a systematic pranayama practice to help you integrate kumbhaka into your everyday life.This feels especially relevant at a time when "urgency energy" seems to have plagued everyone's response patterns and is making the world sick. It is time to meet the present moment with a lot more inner-stillness and wisdom. Kumbhaka helps you bypass thousands of years of fight or flight reactivity patterns and elevates you into a more refined and intentional state of consciousness. You actually live, feel and respond as you intend to, not just as you're used to.For deeper context, listen to my past videos on:Pranayama: https://youtu.be/5InoymEW2no?si=vLYvBXx_afaRAG5YPranayama with Guided Practice: https://youtu.be/eNLKY-HWlN8?si=l4YNJmqJjVA_YVgCThe 5 Sheaths: https://youtu.be/a-i_jr6Wkg8?si=pCawzJHYK1UDI5z5Niv Rajendra is an expert health and longevity coach, Ayurvedic Practitioner and founder of the EMBODIED Ayurveda Programs.
