Yoga is far more than a physical discipline; it is the practical application of a profound philosophical system.

In this episode, Dr. Hakeem Ali-Bocas Alexander explores the deep influence of Indian philosophy on yoga, showing how ancient texts and concepts provide the essential "why" behind the practices of the Eight Limbs.

• Discover how Indian philosophy provides the theoretical foundation that transforms yoga from exercise into a holistic way of life.

• Understand the Eight Limbs as a practical roadmap for personal growth, directly born from philosophical concepts.

• Learn how meditation (Dhyana) is a philosophical practice for cultivating inner stillness amidst life's chaos.

• See how each asana is not just a pose, but a gateway to self-awareness and spiritual insight, rooted in ancient wisdom.

• Be inspired to teach and practice with a deeper sense of purpose, connecting the physical to the philosophical for true transformation.
