These days, yoga is often seen as just about asanas, flexibility, or physical strength.
But in truth, asana is only the third limb of yoga.
At Indian Essence, we believe yoga is a journey inward — a way of living that begins with Yama and Niyama, the first two limbs.
They remind us that yoga is not only about how we move, but how we live — with kindness, honesty, discipline, and self-awareness.
When the mind and body begin to align, the breath follows.
When the breath finds its rhythm, distractions start to fade.
And that’s when real stillness begins — not outside, but deep within.
The 8 limbs of yoga are not steps to climb, but a gentle guide that leads us toward balance, awareness, and freedom from the mind’s restlessness.
