“Yogas chitta vritti nirodha”: Yoga is the calming of the fluctuations of the mind. —Patanjali

When we begin studying yoga – whether by way of the asanas (physical postures), pranayama (breathing disciplines), meditation or studying the Yoga Sutra – the way in which we learn is the same. The more we progress, the more we become aware of the holistic nature of our being, realizing that we are made of body, breath, mind and more.

What does "Prana Das" mean?

PRANA:

Prana is the power that flows in all living forms and performs vital functions. Paramhansa Yogananda called this aspect of prana “life-force.” He further explained that life-force possesses an inherent intelligence, enabling it to carry out the life-sustaining processes. Prana is the universal sea of energy that infuses and vitalizes all matter. Prana is also used to refer to the breath. When the life-force flows properly, the result will be a natural state of health and vitality.

DAS:

Das is derived from the Sanskrit word Dasa meaning servant, “devotee,” or “votary.”

Prana Das is a community and philosophy that is committed and devoted to preserving, expanding and evolving our experience with the life-giving force (Prana) through practice.

YOGA:

Yoga literally means “union”. This union can be understood on different levels. One of these is “to come together,” “to unite,” or “to tie the strands of the mind together.” A further meaning of the word yoga is “to attain what was previously unattainable.”
