Pranayama - The Fourth Ling of the Eightfold Path
The Eightfold Path is also about harnessing something that can help us get through tough times. Scientists have long recognized that our breath can have a huge impact on our well-being. Pranayama isn't just about taking a few deep breaths when we're feeling stressed. Prama is really like everything. Once you focus on your breath and once you assume a posture, whatever that posture is, then your body starts to go into a state of actually engaging with what is underneath your skin and what is happening.
