For thousands of years, yogic adepts have claimed that breath is the
essential link between body and mind, energizing a "subtle body" which
connects the physical and mental aspects of our being. In this landmark
book, Swami Rama and two noted American physicians explore the science
of breath as the missing key to both physical health and the attainment
of higher states of consciousness. Basic yogic breathing techniques are
explained so that we can immediately begin working with this powerful
ancient science.
