The purpose of yoga is connectedness: between the body, mind, spirit and universe. One of the key ideas of yoga is that there is no separation among things and beings. The underlying belief is, that somehow, even though we cannot yet scientifically prove it, everything is connected. The key practice in yoga to create connection is conscious focus on breathing. This practice is called pranayama. Literally translated pranayama means lifeforce (prana) discipline or practice (yama).
