Turning Pain Into Purpose - Why I Revamped My Pranayama Training

I’m sharing the deeply personal story behind why I revamped my Pranayama Teacher Training and how grief transformed my relationship with breath, pranayama, and teaching yoga. I also dive into breath literacy, why breath is more than just a technique, why Ujjayi is often overused, and the foundational breathing principles I believe every yoga student and teacher should understand.Episode Highlights:Revamped Pranayama training launchPersonal pranayama backstoryGrief and relationship with breathTurning pain into purposeBreath literacy philosophyBreath beyond techniqueBeyond inhale and exhaleUjjayi breath reconsideredBreath and nervous system connectionSteady breath and steady mindNasal breathing in yogaNostrils and brain connectionPranayama training detailsItaly retreat updatesPranayam Teacher Training 2026Prana & Presence: An Immersive Week of Yoga, Stillness & Soulful Study in Southern ItalyJoin our mailing listFind all the resources mentioned in this episodeConnect with us on InstagramSubscribe to Aham Yoga on YouTubeLet’s Talk Yoga Podcast on YouTubeLeave us a review and share this podcast with your friends!
