Written by Hello,
Our breath is with us in every situation, even when we don’t think about it.
Ujjayi—the ocean-sound breath—is your companion in your Vinyasa Yoga practice. It gives you strength and lightness, helping to bring your mind into focus.
It weaves through your entire yoga practice like a red thread, enveloping the movement in dynamic sequences, providing stability and openness in standing asanas.
It accompanies you like a good friend, always there—giving you strength with each inhalation and relaxation with each exhalation.
Ujjayi helps focus your mind, generates heat, and promotes the cleansing process in the body.
To practice it, slightly narrow your glottis and let your breath flow evenly with each inhalation and exhalation until you hear a gentle ocean sound.
Thank you! Enjoy your yoga practice and the gift of breath.
