Step-by-step guide to building a morning pranayama practice. Includes Nadi Shodhana, Kapalabhati, Bhramari, and breath awareness techniques with safety guidelines.
Pranayama — conscious control of the breath — is one of the most accessible and powerful tools in yoga. A few minutes each morning can steady the mind, energise the body, and prepare you for meditation.
This beginner routine introduces Nadi Shodhana (alternate-nostril breathing), Kapalabhati (skull-shining breath), Bhramari (humming breath) and simple breath awareness, with clear timings and safety guidelines.
Start slow, never strain, and let the practice grow naturally over the weeks.
