In these sessions, we focus on controlling your breath and energy through ancient techniques to calm the mind and strengthen your core. ## Photos and videos - [Video: It all starts with the breath.

We concentrate on the Manipura Chakra to stimulate digestion and build internal heat. It is a technical practice that requires you to exhale completely and hold the breath out. I always emphasize that this should be done with care, on an empty stomach, and never forced if you have high blood pressure. Pranayama is the bridge between your physical body and your mental state. If you only practice asanas, you are missing half the picture. My sessions at Abhyaas are designed to teach you how to regulate your nervous system through controlled breathing—what we call yogic breathing—and energy locks known as Bandhas. ### Why Bandhas Matter Many students come to me asking how to hold a difficult pose longer or why they feel low energy during the day. Often, the answer lies in the Bandhas. These are not just physical tightenings; they are energy locks. When we engage them, we stop energy from dissipating and direct it where it is needed. * **Uddiyana Bandha:** We practice this to stimulate digestive fire and core stability. * **Jalandhara Bandha:** Used to balance the thyroid and calm the mind. * **Mula Bandha:** Essential for rooting your practice and stability. ### My Approach to Teaching I do not believe in rushing through these techniques. Whether you are joining my classes in Pitampura, Model Town, or connecting with me online, my focus is on the foundation. We start with simple Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) to clear the pathways before moving to advanced breath retention. If you have been struggling with anxiety, digestive issues, or just a scattered mind, these practices are the medicine. ### Practical Guidelines * **Safety First:** I always check for health conditions like high blood pressure or heart issues before introducing advanced retention. Never practice these techniques on a full stomach. * **Consistency:** Breathwork is a daily habit. Ten minutes every morning is better than an hour once a week. * **Correction:** In our small group batches, I provide verbal and tactile cues to ensure you are not straining your neck or shoulders while trying to lock the breath. Arre, darre kyon hai? Breathing is natural. Let us refine it together so it supports your life outside the studio as much as it does on the mat. ## About Neeraj Joshi I am Neeraj, and I believe yoga shouldn't be confined to just bending and stretching. My teaching approach at Abhyaas is about finding that quiet space between breaths where real strength is built, whether we are in a studio in Pitampura or connecting online.
