October

Just as you learnt to gain control over your asana practice, you must gain mastery with your breathing practice. Include classical practices like nadi shodhana, the most healing and mind balancing of pranayama practices. Alternately, you may also include ujjayi or victory breath and brahmari or humming bee breath. These will also de-stress and calm you even as they shore up your will power.

Other practices like kapalabhati (skull cleansing) and bhastrika (bellows breath) are also recommended. But there are certain contraindications for these, so they must be ideally learnt only under supervised guidance.
