Common Ground: On the Yoga Path

Episode 38: Reflection as a Way to Understand


Listen Later

This episode asks us to reflect and to notice when reflection happens on and off of the yoga mat. Within the Eight Limbs of Yoga, we have the niyamas, or positive duties. While they are all observances, Tapas and Svadhyaya, two niyamas in particular, remind us that action, passion, or fire happens, and are followed by self-study. As we study ourselves and look lovingly on the way we are in the world, we open up space to listen and hear feedback from others. Instead of thinking or reacting, can you reflect? You don’t have to analyze all the time. Can you bend back on yourself as a way to be propelled forward? We discuss a-ha moments and how messages from the universe can be clear and direct. We acknowledge that too much awareness becomes too heady and can lead to spiritual bypassing. We surrender to the notion that we can absorb what we need to embrace the moment.
