There is a quiet, constant rhythm moving through each of us—a subtle pulse that animates our bodies, fuels our thoughts, and shapes the way we experience the world. In the yogic tradition, this vital force is called prana. While often translated simply as “breath,” prana is far more expansive. It is the underlying energy of life itself, the invisible current that flows through all living things. The breath is simply one of the most tangible ways we can access and influence it.
