The Yoga Sutras are the foundation of yoga philosophy according to the path of Raja (Royal or Classical) Yoga. Widely regarded as the authoritative text on yoga, they are a collection of aphorisms (general truths), outlining the eight limbs or practices of yoga. These 196 sutras or "threads" (as sutra translates from Sanskrit) of wisdom offer guidelines for living a meaningful and purposeful life.
Join me for a 5 week journey though the Yoga Sutras, and see how these ancient practices can be effectively translated and used for modern day living.
We'll explore: The Yamas, Niyamas, Asana, Pranayama, Pratyahara, Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi
