Enhancing respiratory wellness: Investigating the impact of pranayama on oxygen saturation
Author(s): Dr. Dharmender Singh
Abstract:Breathing is a fundamental physiological process that heralds life and holds profound philosophical significance across various cultures and belief systems. In many philosophical traditions, breathing symbolizes the interconnectedness of life, the cyclical nature of existence, and the flow of energy or consciousness. In practices like yoga and meditation, conscious control of breath is central. It is seen as a bridge between the physical and spiritual realms, a means to cultivate mindfulness, and a path towards self-realization. This research paper explores the potential benefits of breathing exercises and yogic practices involving controlled breathing techniques, on oxygen saturation levels. This research assumes significance in the broader context of escalating pollution levels and the growing threat of respiratory diseases. With the COVID-19 pandemic underscoring the importance of respiratory health, the study's revelations align with the urgent need to prioritize respiratory well-being in the face of evolving global health challenges.
