Pranayama for the Late Summer Days

In this practice, we lean into the inherent heaviness of the humidity that characterizes the Late Summer phase and the element of EARTH.

A slowed-down, observation-rich sequence suitable for practitioners with some experience in the basic pranayama techniques.

Breathwork includes variations of Ujjai (Ocean breath), Agni Sari (alternating bellows breath) and Viloma (Interrupted breathing).

Seeking ground is a deliberate thing, and moving from transmitting to receiving can feel awkward and ungainly. Hence the support of the Late Summer phase and the energies that take us Earthwards like the heavy grains and fruit-laden crops ripe and ready for the harvest.
