At Naples Yoga Center we honor yoga deeply by bringing our movement expertise to you, as well as an education in the philosophical roots of the practice. Join us in classes, workshops and even on our upcoming retreat to Costa Rica this April to discover this rich way of learning yoga. This week, we are moving to and studying the topic of "The Flow of Life."
Yoga is not separate from life, and each yoga practice can resemble life's flow and fluctuations. A devotion to yoga is to allow effort and surrender to move us toward clarity and wisdom.
Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra 1.20 reminds us:
śraddhā-vīrya-smṛti-samādhi-prajñā-pūrvaka itareṣām
The words of this sutra define qualities that carry us through the flow of life:
Śraddhā is trusting the flow, even when there is no evidence of progress.
Vīrya is strength and resolve during times of uncertainty.
Smṛti is the memory that shapes our wisdom.
Samādhi is the fruit of steady effort and concentration.
Prajñā is the wisdom to see with clarity.
