Yoga Ademhalingstechnieken – wat zijn het en waarom zijn ze zo belangrijk?

Je hebt waarschijnlijk al gehoord over ademhalingsoefeningen en hoe ongelooflijk belangrijk ze zijn voor yoga.

Maar als je een complete beginneling bent op het gebied van mindfulness praktijken, sta je waarschijnlijk stil bij de juiste interpretatie van de term.

Vandaag belichten we het onderwerp yoga ademhalingstechnieken.
Bovendien zullen we uitleggen wat ze zijn en praten over de link en het belang die ze verbinden met deze eeuwenoude praktijk.

Yoga ademhalingstechnieken – een overzicht

Ademhaling is een belangrijk element in yoga.
De ademhalingstechnieken in yoga, ook wel pranayama’s genoemd, verwijzen naar het bewust en gecontroleerd in- en uitademen dat beoefenaars doen.

Het patroon moet overeenkomen met het ritme van de yogahoudingen, zodat je het gewenste effect kunt bereiken.
Daarnaast kun je een aantal ademhalingstechnieken oefenen, zelfs zonder te bewegen.

Pranayama is een van de basisfilosofieën waarop deze eeuwenoude beoefening is gebaseerd.
In het Sanskriet staat ‘Prana’ voor ‘levenskracht’ en ‘ayama’ betekent ‘strekken’.

Men gelooft dat je adem de levenskracht van je lichaam bevat.
Door je te richten op het verbeteren ervan, zou je een grote verbetering in je gezondheid en welzijn moeten ervaren.

We kunnen yogische ademhaling definiëren als het proces van het tot stand brengen van een gecontroleerd ademhalingspatroon.
Zoals we al hebben gezegd, is dit essentieel en is het iets waar de algehele beoefening op steunt.

In feite omvatten de oude yoga ademhalingstechnieken het werken met je geest, lichaam en ademhaling om je geest te ontspannen en een staat van diepere kalmte te bereiken.

De combinatie van ademwerk en bepaalde fysieke houdingen helpt yogi’s hun geest te kalmeren en in een rustige staat te komen.

Het belang van yoga ademhalingstechnieken

Ademwerk is heel belangrijk voor de beoefening van yoga en hier gaan we dieper in op waarom dat zo is:

Het verband tussen ademwerk en de lengte van het leven

Men gelooft dat yoga ademhalingstechnieken je levensduur kunnen verlengen en je algehele levenskwaliteit kunnen verbeteren.
De snelheid waarmee je in- en uitademt kan invloed hebben op hoe lang je zult leven.

Ervaren yogi’s geloven bijvoorbeeld dat als je 15 keer per minuut ademt, je wel 80 jaar oud kunt worden.
En als je leert om langzaam en ongeveer 10 keer per minuut te ademen, dan kun je zelfs 100 jaar oud worden.

Dit betekent dat als je sneller ademt, je een kortere levensduur hebt.

Controle hebben over je ademhalingspatroon

Door de frequentie van je ademhaling te veranderen, kun je in verschillende gemoedstoestanden komen.
Het beoefenen van langzame, kalmerende yoga ademhalingstechnieken heeft invloed op je hersenschors.

Als gevolg daarvan stuurt het signalen naar het deel van je hypothalamus dat verantwoordelijk is voor je emoties, waardoor het gebied ontspant.

Dit verklaart duidelijk het verband tussen het vertragen van je ademhaling en de onmiddellijke kalmerende sensatie die je voelt.

Bewust ademen

Zoals we al zeiden, draait het bij yoga-ademhaling om bewust ademen.
Dit helpt je om contact te maken met je innerlijke energie en stelt je in staat om door verschillende niveaus van je bewustzijn te navigeren.

Bovendien hebben de gecontroleerde ademhalingstechnieken in yoga een aanzienlijke invloed op je fysieke, mentale en emotionele toestand.

Aanwezig zijn

Een ander aspect van ademwerk is je in staat stellen om aanwezig te zijn in het moment.
Als je eenmaal volledige controle hebt over je ademhaling, ben je in staat om alle onnodige gedachten los te laten.

Dit betekent dat je je niet langer zorgen maakt over situaties in het verleden en onzekerheden in de toekomst.
Het enige wat belangrijk is, is dat je je volledig concentreert op het moment en het ervaart.

Yoga ademhalingstechnieken

Er zijn veel verschillende methoden om ademwerk te beoefenen, en vandaag gaan we ons richten op de basis yoga ademhalingstechnieken.

Hoewel je deze thuis kunt proberen, is het altijd beter als je begeleiding krijgt van een gekwalificeerde instructeur.

Driedelige ademhaling (Dirga Pranayama)

Ook bekend als volledige yoga-ademhaling, moet je je neus, borst en buik gebruiken om volledig in en uit te ademen.
Je kunt beginnen door met je benen gekruist op de grond te gaan zitten (of rechtop in een stoel).

Sluit je ogen en haal een derde diep adem in je middenrif terwijl je je buik uitzet.
Adem het volgende derde deel in je ribbenkast in en het laatste deel in je bovenborst.
Laat de lucht los door je neus in omgekeerde volgorde en herhaal dit tien keer.

Alternatieve neusgatademhaling (Nadi Shodhana)

Dit is een van de yoga ademhalingstechnieken voor beginners die je rust kunnen brengen.

Plaats om te beginnen je duim op je rechterneusgat en adem in door je linkerneusgat.
Laat dan de duim los en sluit zachtjes het linkerneusgat met je wijsvinger, terwijl je uitademt vanuit rechts.

Wissel het patroon om door rechts in te ademen en links uit te ademen.
Doe dit ongeveer tien keer om het kalmerende effect te ervaren.

Adem van de leeuw (Simhasana)

De adem van de leeuw is een van de ademhalingstechnieken in yoga die je kunnen helpen de overtollige druk en spanning die je voelt te verlichten.

Begin door te knielen, in kleermakerszit op de grond te zitten of comfortabel in een stoel te zitten.
Plaats beide handen op je knieën en adem in door je neus voordat je uitademt door je mond.

Je moet sterk uitademen en je tong uitsteken terwijl je een “haaa”-geluid maakt.
Concentreer je tegelijkertijd op de ruimte tussen je wenkbrauwen of staar naar het puntje van je neus.
Herhaal dit een paar keer.

4-7-8 techniek

De 4-7-8 yoga ademhalingstechniek is een populaire methode die je zal ontspannen.
Het is vrij eenvoudig uit te voeren als je de instructies volgt.

Zit met je mond dicht – adem in tot vier tellen.
Houd je adem zeven tellen in en adem dan acht tellen uit door je bekken.

Het is belangrijk dat je tijdens het uitademen een whoosh-geluid maakt.
Herhaal dit een paar keer om het ontspannende effect te ervaren.

Zoals je kunt zien, zijn yoga ademhalingstechnieken een zeer krachtig yogamiddel.
Als je ze op de juiste manier beoefent, pluk je de vruchten ervan en kun je zelfs je yogaroutine verbeteren.

Als je je klaar voelt om je yogi-ervaring te proberen of te verbeteren, zorg er dan voor dat je goed voorbereid bent.
