Yama & Niyama: Managing Conscious Thought

Yama and Niyama are the first two spokes of Astanga Yoga. They're they are a simple list of dos and don'ts that are important to follow in day-to-day life, especially if you're meditating. Our conscience is disturbed if we do something we innately know is wrong, and that disturbs our peace of mind, making it difficult to concentrate. So using a set of principles like tools is essential for meditation as well as a harmonious and peaceful world.This is Yoga that supports and enhances meditation for health, flexibility, serenity and spiritual enrichment Bring a towel or mat and wear loose clothing.
