Harmonious Breathing is a method that has its origin in Yantra Yoga - a Tibetan Yoga system that is considered one of the oldest system of Yoga already taught in the world. This ancient method works using a specific and detailed manner of synchronizing the breathing and movement of the body. And it was through inspiration on this incredible Tibetan Yoga system that Harmonious Breathing took shape and is presently available to all of us.

​

Breathing is a key element for coordinating the functions of mind and body. It calms the mind, reduces stress, anxiety,  tensions in the body, and amazingly improves both physiological and cerebral functions.

It is never a good idea to have stressful and tense patterns of life and it certainly applies to our breathing patterns. When imbalanced breathing becomes part of our “normal” way of living we can find ourselves in trouble. So if we eliminate the inefficient  patterns of our breathing, it certainly would benefit all aspects of our lives. Breathing in a smooth, continuous, harmonious, slow and quiet manner tends to naturally relax the body and brings peace and ease to the mind. The characteristic of complete and coordinated breathing is a well-known method that is found in several other relaxation methods, and it is also considered a central condition to the ideals and goals of yoga and to many other practices. Its contribution to health and inner harmony has been known by eastern cultures for many centuries and is now widely recognized in western modern society as well. The fundamental role of breathing techniques has become a subject of further studies and its many physical and emotional benefits are now more widely appreciated than ever.

Breathing techniques that replicate the breathing rhythms found when people are relaxed and content, help the mind recognize these signs and spontaneously deliver us a calmer and more grounded experience as a result. Harmonious breathing fully engages all parts of the body involved in the breathing process, from diaphragm to the back muscles. It gently exercises these muscles, flushes out the lymphatic system, and improves the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide taken in by the lungs.

With body and mind more aligned you are able to sleep more deeply, feel better rested and have more energy. The general feeling of wellbeing is complemented by the ability to work and live better.

Therefore, Harmonious Breathing is a simple and effective method that teaches us how to rediscover fluid and complete breathing integrating it  to our day-to-day lives. In this method we apply passive and active exercises with the aid of cushions and blocks according to personal needs. These exercises naturally create a correct motion of air inside our bodies and spontaneously unblock our breathing to its full capacity in a very efficient and gentle way. As research consistently shows, breathing well is vitally important to all of us. It is the key to achieve a positive and relaxed state of mind, to sleep deeply, to have good digestion, to stabilize blood pressure and countless other health benefits.
