Maya’s veils are lifting: a yoga-philosophy take on engineered polarization, media distraction, and organized crime - and how practice helps us see clearly and act.

The ancient yogis believed we, humans, are made up of 5 sheaths, or layers (koshas).
🍎
Annamaya Kosha is the outermost layer of the five koshas in yogic philosophy, representing the physical body or "food sheath".
🥦
It is the densest layer, made of flesh, bones, and organs, and is nourished by food, drink, and physical activity like yoga asanas. A reminder, that you are what you eat.
🥕
This layer is how we perceive through our senses and is mortal. Therefore, we are subject to the cycles of birth, growth, and death.
🫐
We nurish this layer in many ways:
♡Healthy diet
♡Physical activity
♡Mindful eating
♡Sufficient sleep
😴
This sheath (kosha) is our connection to the natural world. The physical body is formed from the elements of the earth and eventually will return to the earth. We are Earth.

Grounding practices such as these are a great way to apply the 'opposites bring balance' principal of Ayurveda.
🍂
Fall/ winter season will naturally increase our AIR element. We use grounding practices to reduce the AIR element within, helping to bring balance to the system.
🌏
We will focus on EARTH element and grounding yoga practices all week. I hope you can join us on the mat or with the chair.

✨ Why Your Lymphatic System Matters:

🌿 It removes waste:
Every cell in your body creates waste — your lymphatic system takes out the trash.

🌿 It supports your immunity:
Your lymph nodes are battle stations, sending out armies of immune cells to protect you.

🌿 It balances your fluids:
It prevents swelling, puffiness, and fluid retention, keeping your tissues light and vibrant.

🌿 It detoxifies naturally:
Forget harsh cleanses — your lymph is the original, daily detox system.

🌿 It nurtures healing:
Every wound you heal, every infection you fight, every toxin you clear — your lymph is behind it.

🌿 It lifts inflammation:
By clearing stagnant fluid, it reduces chronic inflammation, the root of so many modern illnesses.

🌿 It connects your body and soul:
When your lymph flows, you feel it — lighter, clearer, calmer... more you. 🌸🦋

🌟 How to Honor Your Rivers:

💧 Drink pure water.
🚶‍♀️ Move your body with love — walking, stretching, bouncing.
🧘‍♀️ Breathe deep into your belly.
💆‍♀️ Enjoy gentle lymphatic massage or dry brushing.
🌸 Rest in gratitude for the silent work happening within you.

Because when your lymph flows,
life flows. 🌿✨
