Harnessing Inner Energy: Five Pranas Meditation with Morven Hamilton
Bring your awareness to your breath. Just resting in the natural flow of the breath, noticing any impulse to control the breath as much as possible. Just let the breath flow. Naturally, notice how the breath gently moves you.
Ever wondered how to tap into the subtle energy currents within your body? Morven Hamilton's Five Pranas Meditation on the Yoga by Nature Podcast offers a deep dive into this fascinating aspect of yoga. Aimed at serious yoga students, this episode is perfect for those looking to deepen their awareness and sensitivity to the body's energy flows. Morven guides listeners through the five pranas—Prana, Apana, Udana, Samana, and Vyana—explaining how each one harmonizes the flow of energy around the body.
If you're new to this, don't worry. Morven suggests starting with simpler breath awareness and body scan practices before diving into this more advanced meditation. Throughout the episode, you'll learn how to enhance stability and grounding with Apana Vayu, relax and soften with Udana Vayu and Samana Vayu, and integrate energies with Vyana Vayu. The session wraps up with a calming meditation focused on resting in the natural flow of breath and observing the body's energies.
