Breath with awareness is prana. Breath without awareness is just air.

About This Quote

Breathing is the most basic and essential practice in yoga. For people who practice yoga, awareness of breath is absolutely essential. Breath is one’s life force and without it, life becomes empty and meaningless. It is the breath that draws in food to nourish our bodies and creates the energy to do our work. Prana is the vital breath of life, which keeps us moving forward in every possible way; it is what animates our life force.
