Learning from the Fluctuations of Consciousness with Leslie Hogya
by Tanya Marusech
Referencing B.K.S. Iyengar’s Light on Life and The Yoga Sutras of Patañjali, Leslie led an interactive conversation about the 5 vrttris, with a focus on smrti (memory) in April.
How do our memories affect our yoga asana practice?
How do they affect our interactions with others in our daily lives?
Are our memories obstacles or do they serve us well?
Watch the presentation below to find the answers to these questions.
