The definition of yoga is "the controlling of the mind" [citta vrtti nirodhah]. Ashtanga yoga literally means "eight-limbed yoga," as outlined by the sage Patanjali in the Yoga Sutras. According to Patanjali, the path of internal purification for revealing the Universal Self consists of the eight spiritual practices. The first four limbs—yama, niyama, asana, pranayama—are considered external cleansing practices. However, defects in the internal cleansing practices—pratyahara, dharana, dhyana, samadhi—are not correctable and can be dangerous to the mind unless the correct Ashtanga yoga method is followed. In Yogkunj our teachers are certified for teaching this traditional and very important Ashtanga Yoga.

Pranayama is control of Breath". On subtle levels prana represents the pranic energy responsible for life or life force, and "ayama" means control. So Pranayama is "Control of Breath". This also serves as the link between the consciousness and the mind. It was believed that once the breath starts to wander, the mind also becomes unsteady. Once the breath is still, your mind is still as well. Once you understand the right breathing technique, this can create a huge impact to your thoughts and actions. Bear in mind that every thought can change your breath rhythm. If you are happy, breathing is rhythmic. If you are also stressed, your breathing will most often be interrupted or irregular. If you master the “art of breathing”, you can easily understand self healing. Patanjali in his text of Yoga Sutras mentioned pranayama as means of attaining higher states of awareness, he mentions the holding of breath as important practice of reaching Samadhi.

The goal of meditation is to realize who we really are at the Core of our being. The philosophy of yoga says there are two different levels to our inner self: our mental or emotional self and our spiritual self. Meditation means awareness. Whatever you do with awareness is meditation. "Watching your breath" is meditation; listening to the birds is meditation. As long as these activities are free from any other distraction to the mind, it is effective meditation. Meditation means 'a cessation of the thought process' . It describes a state of consciousness, when the mind is free of scattered thoughts and various patterns . The observer (one who is doing meditation) realizes that all the activity of the mind is reduced to one.
