Prana is the ultimate “balancing factor” of the human physiology. According to the ancient Vedic medical texts, prana connects the body to the soul, as well as to the mind and heart. Prana is the life-force. The Vedic texts explain how the human soul, a vibration partaking of the nature of God, is the kernel around which the human physiology is organized. The seat of the soul is the human heart. The body interacts with its soul, in the heart, through prana. Prana flows into the physiology from nature, the environment, and the body is set-up such that it can incorporate this prana into itself.
