Prana Life Works
Unleashing the True Potential of Prana

In yoga, pranayama is the practice of breathing to regulate prana (Sanskrit for breath; life energy). But it is often understated as just a breathing exercise. Prana extends beyond the breath to an entire energetic system that regulates your physiological, mental, and emotional states. Yogic practices effectively help regulate these prana states to offer many therapeutic benefits, like reducing stress and blood pressure, improving sleep quality, relieving pain, easing anxiety, and enhancing cognitive performance.

Prana Life Works is a company dedicated to helping individuals realize the true potential of prana through its yoga therapy services. It combines ancient wisdom with modern science and a lifestyle medicine approach, making its services one of a kind.

Its yoga therapy sessions focus on three vital aspects; mind, body, and breath. “The way we breathe is influenced by our state of mind, physical posture, emotions. In turn, our thoughts and physiology influence our breathing, affecting how we hold stress,” says Founder Jeannie Lee, a Certified Yoga Therapist, YogAlign Instructor, and Corporate Mind- Body Consultant.

That’s why at Prana Life Works, the practices introduced are holistic and adaptable to positively impact an individual’s unique state on many levels. Sessions can involve breathing techniques, functional movement, restorative poses, mindfulness, various forms of meditation, and self-inquiry.

Prana Life Works caters to corporate and individual clients through virtual group and private sessions, complemented by weekly group classes. Although many companies offer workplace yoga and fitness classes, Prana Life Works takes a more individualized and goal-oriented approach for each corporate client. Since each person is unique, an initial consultation or survey is done to understand goals and develop a purposeful yoga program that is not only doable, but sustainable.

Today, many employees struggle with creating healthy boundaries between work and personal life. Prana Life Works offers simple yet powerful yogic practices, through which they can manage stress, physical tension, and energy, much more efficiently during work hours and beyond.

Further, its Stress Resilience Habits program helps employees optimize their time for self-care which encourages a positive attitude and greater sense of fulfillment personally, professionally, and socially. The program includes pre-recorded sessions in small, 15-minute doses that revolve around balancing the three gunas (energetic qualities); tamas (inactivity or stability), rajas (activity or change), and sattva (consciousness and harmony). It uses deliberate and conscious entry into yoga poses that stretch and strengthen while guiding breath and practical meditation in minutes. The objective is to help employees gain greater awareness and control over their physiological stress responses.

Lee’s yoga therapy sessions are not just about doing yoga on the mat to relieve ailments, but identifying opportunities off the mat to create positive shifts with habits or root causes that brought them to that stage in the first place. One of her clients was dealing with headaches, along with chronic neck and shoulder pain. Through Lee’s guidance, the client realized the compounding stress of his never-ending workdays was the root cause. He could then make subtle yet significant changes in his lifestyle, sleeping patterns, and eating habits, which over time, reduced his pain and translated to better workplace productivity.

A former corporate manager herself, Lee’s passion for helping others gain deeper self-awareness and fuel healthy transformation through yoga therapy and inspired action is the secret sauce of Prana Life Work’s accelerating growth.
