Pranayama- Part II

In Pranayama part 2, Kamalaya yoga teacher and mentor Jyoti demonstrates how to channel the energy generated as a result of successfully regulating and enhancing the flow of breath through your nostrils (as shown in Pranayama Part 1).

During this next step, Jyoti will guide you through a detailed practice incorporating two yogic breathing exercises: the Anulom Vilom and Brahmari Pranayamas.

Anulom Vilom specifically helps bring balance to the energy flowing through the Ina and Pingala Nadis. It also helps purify and detoxify these nadis, bringing a deep sense of calm and relaxation to your mind and body. The Brahmari Pranayama (also known as the ‘humming bee’) is particularly useful for developing focus and enhancing your sleep.

Jyoti is a qualified Yoga & Pranayama teacher with more than 12 years of teaching experience in all types of Yogic modalities. She aims to bring a unique sense of empowerment during each of her classes, through use of intentions, basic to advanced asanas, Pranayama, internal body organ cleansing exercises (Shudhi Kriyas), meditation and all the Bandhas (energy locks).

Jyoti feels blessed to have been personally trained in Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Pranayama by renowned Yoga Guru, O.P. Tiwari from Kaivalyadhama, India. Since an early age, Jyoti has expressed a keen interest in Yogic philosophies. This enthusiasm led her to study Yoga Sutras (original Yogic textbooks) to increase her knowledge and understanding of all types of Yoga, including Traditional Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Therapeutic Yoga and breathing practices.

Jyoti’s teaching style encourages clearer thoughts and greater meaning for Yoga in each individual. She applies her knowledge and skills to address a wide range of physical imbalances ranging from chronic pains, cervical, postural and joint stiffness, arthritis, sleep disorders, fluid retention and more. Jyoti also strives to live a yogic lifestyle and to lead each class in a way that reflects the same.
