Discover the transformative power of breath work, with both philosophical and practical dimensions. Focusing primarily on the yoga practice of pranayama, you will gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the healing power of yogic breath work. This course models Cal Poly Humboldt’s “learn by doing” philosophy -- you will be guided through five different traditional pranayamas, allowing you to acquire a foundation for your own breath work practice.
