Pranayama Practice to Enhance your Beauty with Yoga

Pranayama Yoga is the art of controlled breathing. With regular pranayama yoga practice, you stimulate your internal body organs and learn to free your mind from unnecessary mental clutter. This, in turn, will reflect well on your physical appearance. In general, a daily 30-minute pranayama session, along with specific yoga asanas is required to feel and see the benefits. Some pranayamas you can use include the following:

  • Anulom Vilom (Alternate Nostril Breathing)
  • Kapalabhati (Cleaning Breath)
  • Shitali Pranayama (Cooling Breath)
  • Bhastrika (Bellows)
  • Bhramari Pranayama (Bee Breath)

The Yoga Diet

With yoga practice, the saying ‘you are what you eat’ holds especially true since yoga practitioners believe that what you eat is a reflection of yourself, which will then manifest on your physical appearance. True yoga practice must be accompanied by proper diet to get the maximum benefits. You need to nurture your body with the right types of foods so that your mind and general well-being will be properly nourished as well.

In general, a healthy yoga diet must have the proper amount of essential vitamins, nutrients, and minerals needed by the body. Preferably, you should follow a vegetarian diet, perform fasting at least once a month for detoxification purposes, and eat everything moderation. Some of the preferred foods include whole wheat bread, cereals, fresh vegetables and fruits, pure fruit juice, milk, cheese, butter, legumes, seeds, nuts, sprouts, and herbal teas.

To sum up, you can enhance your beauty with yoga while keeping your physical, mental, and spiritual states in their optimum condition. When you practice yoga regularly and eat healthily, you will see and feel the effects in no time at all.
