For thousands of years, yogis have understood what science now confirms: How we breathe can transform how we feel, think, and live. But in traditional yoga, prāna is more than breath—it’s the subtle energy that connects the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of our lives.

Yoga originated in the Indus Valley more than 5,000 years ago. It wasn’t until the 20th century, however, that it found its way to the West, gradually growing from a fringe interest among countercultural youth to a mainstream fitness phenomenon that’s still going strong.
