Early mornings, especially around 5am, are known as “Brahma Muhurta” in yogic tradition—a time when the mind is most calm and clear, and the air is fresh and pure. Practicing pranayama during this time can deepen your focus, improve mental clarity, and set a positive tone for the day.

With consistent practice, pranayama can help reduce stress, increase energy levels, improve lung capacity, boost concentration, and enhance overall mental and physical well-being. Many participants also find it brings a greater sense of peace and emotional balance.

Each session is around 30 minutes and includes a gentle warm-up, guided breathing exercises, and a short meditation to end. This structure helps you ease into the practice and prepares you for the day ahead with a calm and centered mind.

Just bring yourself in comfortable clothing and, if possible, find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed. It’s ideal to practice on an empty stomach, so try not to eat anything heavy beforehand. A yoga mat and a blanket for seated comfort can also enhance your experience.

While gentle breathing exercises can be beneficial during pregnancy, certain pranayama techniques may not be suitable. If you’re pregnant, it’s essential to seek advice from a prenatal yoga instructor or healthcare provider to find practices that are safe for you.

If you experience frequent dizziness or have low blood pressure, some pranayama exercises might feel challenging or uncomfortable. Please consult a healthcare professional before joining, as some techniques could exacerbate these symptoms.

Yes, pranayama is generally safe during menstruation, and certain techniques like gentle belly breathing or alternate nostril breathing can even help relieve cramps and reduce stress. However, avoid intense practices like kapalabhati (skull-shining breath) or bhastrika (bellows breath) if you feel any discomfort, as these can be too stimulating.
