Pranamaya Kosha: Illuminating the Path of Energy

kosha, prana, mind, calm, pranayam

Prana is a Sanskrit word that means movement, motion, or vibrations. The pranamaya kosha is also defined as the vital energy sheath(prana). Because it is also related to the energy, it is not simply contained within the physical body – because our energy expands out beyond the body. Pranamaya kosha is what unites the body and mind.

Prana enters the body via nourishment and breath which plays very much vital roles. It encompasses various functions related to energy and the subtle forces within the body, including the flow of breath, the circulation of blood, digestion, and the movement of other vital energies.

Pranamaya Kosha's exploration is part of the larger yogic journey toward self-realization and understanding the deeper layers of one's being beyond the physical body. 

An important way of working with pranamaya kosha is to perform PRANAYAMAS, or breathing exercises. These are believed to have a positive effect on the energy system of the body. Practices like pranayama (breath control) and certain types of meditation aim to balance and harmonize this energy within Pranamaya Kosha.


In forthcoming blogs, we will explore self-realization experiences and the techniques to attain a calm and carefree life.
