breath is the bridge
The breath is more than oxygen.
It is the bridge between body, mind, and spirit. Each inhale and exhale carries you back to balance, presence, and aliveness. Breathwork is the practice of listening to this rhythm and allowing it to guide you home.

“Pranayama is the practice of breath control.
It cultivates a strong sense of awareness,
both within and without."
