Exploring Svadhyaya: The Yoga of Self-Study and Introspection
We talk about the key yoga principle of Svadhyaya, or self-study, and how it is integrated into various yoga practices like Hatha, Vinyasa, and Iyengar Yoga. We discuss how each movement and breath becomes an opportunity for introspection and self-awareness, starting with grounding poses and progressing to poses that foster self-observation. The practice culminates in Savasana or seated meditation, where Svadhyaya encourages turning inward and reflecting on the practice, nurturing both self-awareness and growth.
