Born in Vayu

Description

Vayu it is freedom, movement, and expansion. Present in our body as prana, we can master this element through the practice of pranayama.

We can treat this element as our teacher or inner guru. To make this idea more tangible, reflect on how we treat the air element in our body and how this determines our interactions with the life around us.

Do we rush through life, fearful that we must make the most of our time before our prana runs out? How is this different from our very first breath, were we born with a fear that we only have a limited amount of air, or did we allow the air to flow with intuition and ease?

This Tattva is associated with the anahata (heart chakra) and the sense of touch. Favors actions of destruction or fascination.
