The “pranayama” of yoga is represented by “Pranayama” in Sanskrit, where Prana means “life qi” and ayama means “expansion” (note that it is not yama, which means “control”).
The pranayama of yoga stimulates and massages all internal organs by regularly inhaling and exhaling, as well as consciously holding your breath, so as to awaken the energy hidden in the body (the breath of life) and enable it to be preserved, conditioned and improved.
