Living the Yamas & Niyamas: The Magic of Yoga Off the Mat

Join Ryan Caputi for a four-part series exploring the Yamas and Niyamas. This will be a safe and welcoming space to ask questions and explore the ethical side of yogic philosophy. You will walk away with a deeper understanding of yogic principles such as non-violence and truthfulness; you will be given journaling and meditation practices that you can use at home; and you will be ready to extend yoga into all aspects of your life.

Considered the foundation to yogic thought, the Yamas (non-violence, truthfulness, non-stealing, non-excess, and non-possessiveness) and Niyamas (purity, contentment, self-discipline, self-study, and surrender) are rare gems of wisdom that give direction to a well-lived and joyful life. These teachings highlight practical yogic guidance that is meant to bring understanding to your experience(s), while at the same time pointing the way to the next experience.
