Ujj\u0101y\u012b breath calms the nervous system and releases excess heat. N\u0101\u1e0d\u012b \u015aodhana helps balance v\u0101ta and reduces anxiety or restlessness. To counteract internal heat and dryness, practise \u015a\u012btal\u012b (cooling breath), which also promotes hydration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These practices regulate energy flow, helping you and your wife maintain equilibrium as the seasons shift.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"652\" height=\"722\" src=\"https:\/\/yogamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/224.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15614\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/224.jpg 652w, https:\/\/yogamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/224-271x300.jpg 271w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 652px) 100vw, 652px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q: With the fluctuating temperatures and warm air, how can pr\u0101\u1e47\u0101y\u0101ma support my respiratory health and keep me grounded in both mind and body during the August transition?
