Energy
The sun gives us life, without it there would be nothing on Earth. Everything within our planet is a product of the sun's pure light energy. The sun itself is a ball of burning energy – born of the universe. The universe contains infinite energy, and this gave us life, and keeps us alive. Throughout your Sun Salutations Yoga Practice, you developed physical, emotional, and spiritual energies. This universal energy can also be called Prana, or the life force. Prana is invisible. It is the feeling you have in your fingers when you reached your hands up to the sun in Upward Salute. It is the feeling in your chest when you stand tall and proud in Mountain Pose.

When you close your eyes and feel this life force energy, or Prana, you begin to feel different emotions or think specific thoughts. While you practice Sun Salutations, keep the idea of Prana in your mind. Make a conscious effort to feel the tingling sensation in your fingers, chest, feet, etc. when you go through the poses. When you begin to feel the Prana energy, draw your attention to your emotions, spiritual thoughts, or physical feelings. Do these feelings make you think of a specific color, design, song, dance, or word?
