Description
Prana, in Sanskrit, means absolute energy. It is the active principle of life. The Chinese call it chi, the Japanese call it ki, and the Stoics call it pneuma. Prana is universal energy, a vital force present in all forms of life, from the most elementary form of plant life to the highest form of animal life. It is all-pervading and a universal principle, representing the essence of all motion, force, or energy in the universe. It encompasses gravity, electricity, the movement of the planets, and all forms of life.The body uses oxygen in the blood to replenish and rebuild itself. The nervous system uses prana when we think, act, reason, and move. Consequently, constant replenishing is necessary. Every thought, every action, every effort of the will, every muscle movement, and every spoken word uses a certain amount of prana.Think of prana as the vitality you feel, the energy or force that animates you and every other form of matter. ✉️ Get a daily Yogi reflection directly to your inbox.
