Sivananda yoga ashram is a great place to be to learn about the yamas and niyamas or ethical guidelines in an immersive yoga environment. There are two classes a day here and the vegetarian cuisine is superb.
It’s always been a welcome respit for me and feels like a home away from home in many ways. 🕉️
The 5 Yamas are very strong ethical standards that apply to many aspects of existence and to life in general. I will mention 2 here for now:
Ahimsa is “non violence” and it refers to thoughts, words and deeds and even deeper….. if you truly practice a life of non violence you will not be harming animals nor humans. This includes being non violent in your thoughts and words to humans at some of the most subtle levels.
Asteya is “non-stealing” and refers to not taking that which is not yours. It can refer to intellectual property, mental space and all sorts of other areas.
We will explore more in depth both the Yamas and the Niyamas and how they pertain to living an extraordinary life of both service and love. ❤️
