This is session four of an introduction to pranayama. Today, we will guide you through a simple calming technique known as the Cleansing Breath, inhaling through the nose and exhaling softly through pursed lips, like breathing through a straw. This gentle breath slows the heart rate, activates the parasympathetic nervous system, and helps release tension from the body. It's an ideal practice when you're feeling anxious, restless or simply want to reset. Accessible and soothing, this breath can become a daily anchor.
