Abstract

Pranayama, or yoga breathing, is a vital part of Indo-Tibetan traditions and offers both physical and spiritual benefits. It promotes spiritual enlightenment, increased awareness, physical well-being, and meditation. Pranayama calms the mind, eases tension, and enhances meditation techniques. Studies indicate that it is effective in treating mental health issues, reducing stress, and enhancing wellbeing. Promising applications include post-disaster aid and healthcare settings. Techniques for gathering physiological data include the use of instruments like photoplethysmographs, strain gauges, FlexComp, and EEG electrodes. Originating in Mount Abu, Brahmakumaris Raja yoga meditation emphasizes universal energy and positive thinking. Pranayama in yoga has the ability to manage risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Sixty volunteers, divided according to experience level, participated in a study on the intervention of yoga and meditation. Keywords: Brahmakumaris Raja yoga, physiological monitoring, stress reduction, mental health, yoga breathing, pranayama, meditation, and intervention study. Significance: This page emphasizes the various advantages of pranayama for both physical and mental health, as well as its significance in Indo-Tibetan traditions.
