Yoga's Evolution: The Essence and Flow of Yoga

The Sanskrit word 'asana,' meaning 'seat' and 'posture,' reflects yoga's original focus on stillness and alignment. The definition of yoga, 'to join,' 'to yoke,' or 'to unite,' speaks to its ultimate goal: the union of individual consciousness with the divine universal consciousness. While the ancient texts of the Yoga Sutras did not emphasize flowing between postures or repeating poses, today's popular 'vinyasa flow' style, which emerged about 100 years ago, represents a significant evolution in yoga practice. At Breathe for Wellness, we respect this progression and guide practitioners back to yoga's roots, where stillness, mindful breathing, and the pursuit of unity are paramount.

Our Approach: Educating for a Breath-Centered Life

We are dedicated to educating and empowering individuals in the practice of functional breathing. By providing the knowledge and tools necessary for this practice, we aim to inspire a wellness movement that transcends the yoga mat and permeates every aspect of life.
