What is in Pranayama
The word Pranayama is comprised of two words Prana and Ayama. Prana means vital force and Ayama means expansion of the vital force. The moment we are born and till the moment we die, the breath is the only aspect that is always present but we rarely observe our breath and become unaware of our breath most of the time. In this practice, we are going to focus on our breath with some of the breathing techniques that is explained in yoga and that helps in getting rid of unnecessary accumulation.

What is in Meditation
Meditation is the uninterrupted flow of concentration. It consists of 3 main components:
- 1. Dhyata(doer, the practitioner)
- 2. Dhyeya(object)
- 3. Dhyana(the process, that is meditation itself)
In the initial stage of meditation all three components are present but as you progress through your practice, you will become one with the object, and eventually, the object gets dissolved and only the proc less is left.
This is easier said than done, as we all know that we as human beings have a lot of unnecessary accumulations from the materialistic desires that continuously give us thoughts gain and loss, so first we must learn how to sit still just being in the moment, we must forget about the past and should not worry about the future. On this note, we will start today’s meditation and just learn to sit still for a few minutes.
