How To Do Yoga Pranayama For Stress Relief
Pranayama
Steps -
Sit in Padmasana, Sukhasana or Vajrasana quietly.
Breathe normally and concentrate your mind on inhaling and exhaling.
The Pranava is the full cosmic Om (or AUM), represented as the three distinct vibratory sounds of 'A' (ah), 'U' (oh) and 'M' (mm).
These three distinct resonant sounds are intimately tied with the three parts of the breath, explored earlier with our lobular breathing practice of vibhagha pranayama.
1. The 'Ahh' sound originating from the solar plexus is related to adham pranayama, or lower lung breathing.
2. The 'Ohh' sound originating from the chest region corresponds to madhyam pranayama, or mid-chest breathing.
3. The 'Mmm' sound, as it moves upward and transcends its auditory character is associated with adhyam pranayama, or upper lung breathing.
While practicing Pranav pranayama imagine that God is everywhere in every particle. Practice for 3 minutes to 1 hour as per your available time.
Benefits of Pranav Pranayama -
It gives physical and spiritual energy.
Gives relief from mental stress and overcomes the physical disorders.

Strengthen the mind.
Meditation.
Increases concentration.
Helps in spiritual development and widen our perspective.
