Breathwork has been used by humans for at least 5,000 years. References are made in the “Yoga Sutras of Patanjali” with in 18 of the Sutras. One of which is Pada II. Sutra 51.
“The refinement of breath or prana is thus the physical counterpart of expansion of consciousness. The breath is the connecting link of life between the inner machinery – the mind, intellect, ego and senses – and the outer machinery – the physical body and its world. It is precisely the breath locked into narrow boundaries of stress, belief and judgment that maintains ignorance. Conversely, when the subtlest breath, the udana prana enters the susumna, enlightenment is absolutely natural.”
