In a culture that glorifies more - more hustle, more likes, more stuff - Brahmacharya offers a sacred pause. In this episode of On the Mat, Leah unpacks the fourth Yama from Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, often translated as moderation or non-excess, but whose roots trace back to something much deeper: a way of living aligned with the Divine.

Together, we’ll explore Brahmacharya as a practice of right energy, not rigid denial. We’ll talk about balance, enjoyment, and the difference between willpower and self-discipline. Leah also shares how moderation is not about restriction, but about creating space for more meaning, more presence, and more intentional joy - on your mat and in your life.
