Yoga Sutras of Patanjali
After reading many self development books on creative visualisation, mind control, power of the sub-conscious and self-actualisation, I got to studying Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, that changed my life.
I realised that the previous books I had been reading, the crux of all that knowledge and much more had already been compiled more than 2500 years back by Maharishi Patanjali in the 196 Yoga Sutras.
Each Sutra is a pearl of wisdom, to be properly chewed, digested and practiced before moving to the next one.

Sutra 2.50 a: Breath, regulated with precision in Pranayama, becomes progressively long and subtle.
50th Sutra Chapter 2
Pranayama has three movements:
out-breath, in-breath and breath suspension,
that are harmoniously regulated with precision,
to become progressively long and subtle,
when observed by means of location, time, and number.
As we control our breath, we control our thoughts.
And as we observe our breath,
we get to observe our thoughts and emotions, losing their grip on us.
