I,ve heard a few people take only prana as their nutrition. They are called pranarians or something like that.

I haven't practised any breathing exercises but I focus on breathing in prayer. It helps me to retain concentration and it gives me rhythm. I've learned about this when I read about hesychasm prayer method (christian mystic tradition). Anyone can use the basic method but advanced practise requires an experienced teacher.
