Prana is the Life-force or vital energy that permeates everything, all living beings, plants and inanimate objects. When our pranic energy flows effortlessly and without hindrances/ blockages, our body and mind feel healthy. Mental and emotional fluctuations, such as fear or worry and negative thoughts, as well as the quality of food we digest can interfere with the flow of Prana through our physical and energetic body. Fear and worries influence the way we breathe, too, and the way we breath, shallow or deep, again has an effect on the flow of Prana through our body. If we breathe deeply and slowly, our body is being nourished on its deepest level with pranic energy. Sit in stillness a few minutes each day. Bring your awareness to your body and then your breathing. Allow your breath flow naturally, and then begin to breathe deeply into your abdominal area. Slow down your inhalation and particularly your exhalation and visualise pranic energy move deeply into your cell tissue and nourish your body , mind and soul.
