   Excellent Introductory booklet - very short read The Science of Breathing is an excellent resourceful booklet. This book is written by Swami Vikekananda, the paramguru of Vedanta. This is a very short read, a introduction to the understanding of yoga, the Raj yoga, the study of prana, as one of the 8 limbs.Raja yoga is described in ancient hindu texts and is the very foundation of establishing spirituality in one's life. The detailed explanation is in the sutras of Patanjali which are described in Excellent Introductory booklet - very short read The Science of Breathing is an excellent resourceful booklet.

   Short book. More philosophy. Central message to me: Yoga is a form of meditation. Ultimately with the goal of self-transcendence and relieving suffering in the world by a focus on the source of suffering, the mind. Since body and mind are one (non-dual), bodily exercise translates into mental states and acts as a way to achieve transcendence of mental suffering.

   Good Book Comprehensive especially if you have no prior knowledge on the SM I was already aware go various forms of breathing - especially in regards to calming nerves anxiety heart rate for competitive sports performance. (also healing pain management) It was interesting but made total sense the netti pot was included in this book -

   A Great Breathing Technique Vivekananda gives one simple breathing technique in this talk. What good would more techniques do, if you don't practice even the one and demonstrate the value of this discipline. I gave this technique to Texas prisoners.Those who practiced it radiated joy from their faces; they needn't say a thing.

    Not a bad book, but it didnt really teach me all that much about breathing. I was expecting more in depth explanation as well as exercises and examples. But there was bbn only a brief outline of correct breathing and then the author goes off explaining prana etc.

    A very small book with a little information. The book highlights the need for meditation and specifically the importance of breathing exercises and how it will help the self. There are no details of about the breathing techniques themselves. An OK read.

    Not sure Lot of discussions on various concepts, one para on breathing, alternate nostril breathing doesn’t require a book format. As noted I’m not sure if missed the whole concept of the book.
