The Upanishads state that there are two ways to quiet the consciousness: A complete elimination of desire and pranayama.

Join Paul Menard as we take the time to dive into breathing with the intention of moving into quiet. Together we will explore pranayama as a means to soothe, focus and free consciousness. Time will be spent preparing the body and mind to accept the gifts that pranayama has to give and practicing breathing techniques as a pathway to stillness.
