Centenary Year

The Prashant "sessions" are part of a larger series of events that are commemorating B.K.S. Iyengar's centenary year. This is the backdrop and platform at the PYC Hindu Gymkhana, where the sessions are being held.

We had a sweet and rich pranayama session today. We turned the long-fold blanket perpendicular to our body, across the waist area, and focused on softening the abdomen, connecting abdomen to breath, breath to abdomen, breath to brain, brain to breath, abdomen to brain, etc. Lots of connections. Later Prashant talked about the abdominal relaxation being like a good belch after a delicious meal, which, he said, an Indian host thoroughly expects.
