Yoga Sutras Deep Dive: Asana & Pranayama -- The Body as Gateway

We unpack Sutras II.46 through II.53, examining why Patanjali devoted just three verses to asana when modern yoga has thousands of poses, how "steady and comfortable" became the world's most misunderstood instruction, and what Mark Singleton's historical research reveals about the true origins of modern postural yoga. Then we cross the bridge into pranayama -- the practice that sits at the exact interface between body and mind. We explore the five pranas, the mechanics of kumbhaka (breath retention), the mysterious "fourth pranayama" that arises spontaneously in deep meditation, and what modern neuroscience confirms about the vagus nerve, respiratory sinus arrhythmia, and why controlling your breath genuinely changes your brain.
