This workshop will provide a clear understanding of the "vayus" which are the five primary aspects of the life force/prana. These five movements of prana have very subtle yet distinct energetic qualities. They govern physical, mental and emotional processes and can become weak or exacerbated. Imbalances in these primary vayus create physical and psychological disease and suffering. When we understand these five vayus better, we can better influence the subtle energies that underlie yoga practice and correct the energetic imbalances we may observe in ourselves. This is done through chosen physical postures (asanas), breathwork (pranayama), mudras (gestures), mantra chanting and mindful habits to consciously shift our state, relieve stress, enhance focus, be more humble, and be a little freer from the shackles of our birth constitution.
