Ujjayi

Ujjayi breathing is a technique commonly used in yoga that involves a slight constriction in the back of the throat while breathing. It creates an audible sound resembling ocean waves, often described as a "victorious" or "ocean" breath. Ujjayi breath is slow, controlled, and deep, allowing for full expansion of the lungs. This practice promotes focus, relaxation, and mind-body connection. The audible sound acts as a focal point, anchoring the mind and enhancing present-moment awareness. Ujjayi breathing is beneficial for calming the mind, reducing stress, and energizing the body, making it a valuable tool for both physical and mental well-being during yoga practice and beyond.
