ISBN Breath, Mind, and Consciousness

Modern scientists are just now beginning to understand what yogis have known for centuries--that the life force animating our physical bodies is regulated by eath, and that the eath energy is controlled by the mind. The esoteric and practical science of Swar Yoga--presented in this book for the first time in English--teaches conscious observation and control of eathing patterns to maximize energy and vitality. _x000D_

Tantric Scholar and author of Tools for Tantra, Chakras, and The Healing Power of Gemstones, Harish Johari ings an in-depth knowledge of ancient Hindu sciences to this discussion of eath and the yoga of balanced living. His is the first guidebook for Westerners to offer a comprehensive treatment of the subject, providing information from Sanskrit texts otherwise unavailable in the English Language. He explains the sensory network of the nose and its effect on the subtle channels of energy throughout the body, showing the direct link between the practice of conscious eathing and the electrochemical balance of the ain and nervous system. He also shows how the eath, alternating between left and right nostrils, is influenced by solar and lunar forces and how one can attune to these natural rhythms and universal laws for greater health and well-being. _x000D_
