Living the Yamas and Niyamas

BRING YOGIC PHILOSOPHY INTO YOUR DAILY LIFE

The yamas and niyamas are like a map written to guide you on your life’s journey. Together, they form an adaptable framework for moral conduct. Join Kripalu Faculty Monique Schubert and explore how the first two limbs of Patanjali's eight limb path can bring your life into greater alignment. 

Through asana, pranayama and meditation practice, written reflection, group sharing, and assignments, you

  • Explore the yamas and niyamas not as rules to follow but as invitations to open to new levels of personal growth and spiritual expression 
  • Take steps to align your actions with your deepest beliefs and desires to live in 
  • Find clarity and freedom as you contribute to creating a more just and equitable world.

Find concrete ways of connecting who you wish to be and how you show up in the world. Return home with a deeper and more embodied understanding of the yamas and niyamas, and what light they can shed into your life. 

Note Please bring a journal and a pen or pencil.

“By firmly grasping the flower of a single virtue, a person can lift the entire garland of yama and niyama.” 
​— Swami Kripalu
