In this podcast we speak with an extraordinary woman who has used an age-old practice to reverse her asthma symptoms. Bhavani Kludt had been an asthma sufferer since early childhood. She recalls in one of her published papers how her mother would "fill the bathroom with steam to give her relief during her early years".
At 36, Bhavani began to practice yoga and eventually became a certified Integral Yoga Instructor. Upon discovering yoga, she also discovered and developed yogic practices to minimize her asthma episodes. She has taught workshops to hundreds of students throughout the bay area in an effort to help them understand how breathing techniques and gentle, simple postures can relieve some of their chronic asthma symptoms.
NOTE: In February, Bhavani will be featured in a video produced by Breathe California in which she will demonstrate some of the breathing practices and postures which have helped in coping with her asthma.
