We’ve talked about what the eight limbs of yoga are and where they came from (if you missed that episode just scroll a few back) but what is each limb's practical, energetic, and spiritual significance in modern life? From the ethical and personal observances of Yama and Niyama, respectively, to the physical aspects of Asana, the breath control of Pranayama, and the mental focus of Dharana. And of course how it all culminates in the exploration of Dhyana and Samadhi. The Eight Limbs are here to help you cut through the noise and come back to what really matters, this episode will explain how.

Listen and learn:

🔹How each limb of yoga serves a unique purpose in personal growth

🔹What it means to “live your yoga” through these teachings

🔹The practical ways the 8 limbs help you reclaim your scattered energy
