This week, we're demonstrating how to integrate Gunjan breathing with traditional asana work. ** Mandukasana with Sacred Gunjan Breathing ------------------------------------------------------------ Our latest video combines the transformative power of Mandukasana (frog pose) with the healing vibrations of Gunjan breathing. This unique fusion activates your vagus nerve - your body's pathway for shifting from stress to deep restoration. Key benefits you'll experience: * Enhanced digestive health and natural blood sugar support * Stress relief through parasympathetic nervous system activation * Improved sleep quality and emotional regulation * Increased prana flow through sound vibration healing What you'll learn: * Proper Gunjan breathing technique with extended humming exhales * Sacred hand positions including Adi Mudra and Brahma Mudra * Three hand placement variations to suit your body * Safety guidelines for all practitioners The practice combines ancient wisdom with modern science - the extended humming exhale maximizes vagal nerve activity, leading to measurable results like reduced stress hormones, lowered heart rate, and improved digestion. ** Making It Your Own ------------------------------------------------------------ Whether you're managing stress, seeking digestive support, or deepening your practice, this Mandukasana-Gunjan combination offers powerful transformation tools. The video provides multiple variations so you can adapt the practice to your current needs. We encourage you to explore this practice gently, allowing the sound vibrations to guide you into deeper healing and awareness. ------------------------------------------------------------ OM Shanti, Shanti, Shanti OM Peace, Peace, Peace be with us!

This powerful approach combines traditional yoga with specialized breathing techniques that offer remarkable physiological benefits. What makes Gunjan Yoga particularly special is its ability to produce 15 times more nitric oxide than regular breathing - a significant boost that promotes deep relaxation and strengthens immunity. We encourage you to join us for regular sessions throughout August as we explore this transformative practice together. The consistency of regular practice will help you experience the full spectrum of benefits that Gunjan Yoga offers. ** Upcoming Class Details ------------------------------------------------------------ ðï¸ Date: Saturday August 9th & Sunday August 10th (Also next week, no class on Saturday, only Sunday 17th.
