Elémire Zolla’s article examines in detail the art of breathing in the West, both as a spiritual practice and as a meditation tool. He investigates the historical legacy and prominent figures of this tradition, as well as the controversies and evolution. He takes time as well to compare the Western use of breathing with the more advanced and well-known Eastern tradition of yoga.
