Breath Practices, or Pranayams are a major component of the teachings Yogi Bhajan brought to the West. Breath of Fire, Sitali Pranayam, Dog Breath and Cannon Breath among others, bring vitality and strength to the nervous system and balance to the glandular system. He also went into great detail about breath signatures, breath rate, and other ways to observe the breath in regard to temperament, stress, resilience and success.

呼吸练习，也就是呼吸控制法（Pranayam），是 Yogi Bhajan 带到西方的教导中很重要的一部分。火呼吸、清凉呼吸（Sitali）、小狗式呼吸、炮筒式呼吸等等，都能给神经系统带来活力与力量，并让腺体系统趋于平衡。他也十分详细地讲过呼吸的特征、呼吸频率，以及从呼吸观察性情、压力、韧性与成就的种种方法。
