Natural breath, long breath

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Natural breath, long breath Bringing our awareness to the process of breathing In this practice we explore two ways of breathing, natural breath, and long breath. We alternate between these two options, paying attention to where the breath creates movement. As you pay attention to your breath, is it easy to stay focused?

Awareness and its content

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Awareness and its content Are there differences between awareness and its content? In this practice we alternated between noticing the content of awareness through your perception of sensations in your body and focusing on awareness itself, your ability to witness. Although simple this is a very useful and powerful skill because it enables you to be present and to notice the always changing content of awareness. If the content of your awareness keeps changing all the time, does it make sense to identify with something impermanent? https://simple-yoga.org This content is inspired by the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali according to the book Unravel the Thread by Ruben Vasquez available at: Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/1737648202/ #yoga #simpleyoga #yogasimple #unravelthethread #yogasutra #patanjali #patanjaliyogasutra #presence yoga, yoga sutra,yoga philosophy, patanjali, awareness, consciousness, meditation, presence, memory, applied philosophy, yoga practice, pranayama, pratyahara, concentration, presence

First fundamental need

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: First fundamental need How do you express your uniqueness? Is authenticity affiliating with a particular set of beliefs? Have you consciously participated in the creation of those beliefs? What do you do when you discover that one of those beliefs no longer fits your experiences? Do you believe that there is a specific self within you? Does that self change, or does it always remain the same? Is it possible to recognize that you have always been a unique expression of consciousness, participating in life with less prejudice, and appreciating the uniqueness of each moment? https://simple-yoga.org This content is inspired by the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali according to the book Unravel the Thread by Ruben Vasquez available at: Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/1737648202/ #yoga #simpleyoga #yogasimple #unravelthethread #yogasutra #patanjali #patanjaliyogasutra #presence
