What is Pranayama ?  
  
  Pranayama is an aspect of Yoga that   deals with breathing. It is the breathing   process or the control of the motion  of   inhalation, exhalation and the retention of   vital energy. Proper breathing is to bring   more oxygen to the blood     and to the   brain, and to control Prana or the vital life   energy.
