Throughout time 

The breath was seen as a force

That ran through mind, body and spirit 

Like a river running through a dry valley

Giving sustenance to everything in its course.

Breath is a subtle force that sustains life and responds sensitively to everything that happens to us. In yoga therapy breath is one of the fundamental aspects of health that guides our work with care-seekers. This workshops looks at the broad picture of how our breath functions, the effects it has on our overall health, how to restore optimal breathing and how to best apply the tools of pranayama to support people whose breathing is negatively affected by conditions affecting the respiratory system.
