YOGA ASANAS

...continued from the last issue
Finding the sweet spot
Having understood this approach, the
Yamas and Niyamas of the yoga sutras can
sometimes feel like sky-high ideals that
may take time (a lifetime or even more!) to
cultivate and establish. We may be tempted
to ignore or overlook them. But paying

attention to them is very necessary. In our

world of glamor and instant gratification

it can seem more desirable and important

to learn and perfect triangle pose than to

practice kindness (ahimsa) in every moment.

We tend to believe that a doing a headstand

will be more fulfilling and beneficial than

only taking what we need from our planet’s

How To Make the Yamas and

Niyamas Work for You in the

Modern World
