Yoga, Pranayama & Breathwork

Bhramari Pranayama, named after the Indian black bee (Bhramari), is one of the most soothing breathing practices in yoga. The gentle humming vibration calms the mind, reduces anxiety, and can lower blood pressure within minutes. Research published in the International Journal of Yoga found that Bhramari significantly reduces heart rate and blood pressure while increasing parasympathetic activity.
