Why practice?
Self-study is at the heart of Yoga. It’s a reference to reflecting upon who we are beyond our roles in life: Beyond how others view us or how we present ourselves outwardly.
All the meditative disciplines involve looking at oneself and what rises, whether it be thoughts, emotions or memories. It’s a reflective practice. The mind is made steady in practice so that we can observe these inner movements.
At Yoga Mandir a reflective practice is conducted through the practice of asana. Having learned and studied asanas individually, along with adjustments, modifications and their links between one another we string the asanas together in sequences which demand attention and application yet deliver a steady reflective mind. Its meditation in action.
