Show Notes
Viloma translates as 'Against the Grain', and this yogic breathing technique involves dividing our breath into parts. The influential yoga teacher BKS Iyengar likened this technique to climbing the rungs of a ladder, and dividing our breathing up in this way can help us find a little more awareness, a little more space, and even a little more softness within our breathing.

This episode is a rerecording of episode number 47. It recently came to my attention that the audio quality in some of the previous episodes is not great. I record and edit all the episodes of this podcast myself, while trying to juggle a busy professional and family life. I didn't do as good a job of this as I could have at times. The audio quality here should be a bit better, and I do apologize to anyone who has listened to an episode with poor quality in the past.
