The Yamas & Niyamas – A Spiritual Guide to Yogic Living

The first two limbs of the eight-fold path of the Yoga Sutras—the foundational text of classical yoga—are explored in this spiritual guide to yogic living. These ethical pillars, known as the yamas and niyamas, empower individuals to take ownership of their lives, redirect their energy toward meaningful fulfillment, and develop the skills to choose their attitude, thoughts, and actions mindfully.

The five yamas (restraints) include: nonviolence, truthfulness, not stealing, nonexcess, and non-possessiveness. The five niyamas (observances) include: purity, contentment, self-discipline, self-study, and surrender.
