just breathe was born from …
Just breathe was born from having seen so many people struggle over the last few years with ill health, injuries, financial struggles, juggling caring for kids and parents and not having time for self care. Just breathe can be accessed on your phone and carried in your pocket to help whenever you need a moment to gather yourself.
Breathing, whilst something we all do on a daily basis, is a powerhouse of potential sitting right under our nose waiting to be discovered in order to unlock the fullness of life. We can harness the power of the breath to give us more energy, to calm us down, to help us feel centred when we are overwhelmed, to warm, to cool, to balance, to cleanse, to heal, the list is endless.
Pranayama is the practice of breath regulation and the fourth of the eight limbs of yoga. In Sanskrit prana means life energy and yama means control. The practice of pranayama therefore is the practice of controlling our life energy. the quality of our breath directly influences the quality of our life.
Daily stressors, tension and physical habits can create physical and energetic blocks in our bodies. Without noticing, our breathing can gradually become more shallow or stilted. We can develop unconscious breathing patterns restricting the flow of breath and prana.
Establishing a daily pranayama practice can be just the thing to help you turn a corner and regain control of your energy, emotions and life. Just breathe is your pal in your pocket to help you through the day. Whether you struggle with low energy, lack of sleep or overwhelm there is a breathing technique for you. Shift the energetic blocks one breath at a time and expand in to a brighter, lighter future.
