DR. TRUJILLO’S COMMENTS: My conversation with Amy Landry, author of the new book The Ocean of Yoga: A Complete Guide to Living the Teachings, Tradition, and Practice dove deeply into the ocean that is yoga.  We discussed some history of yoga, the importance of prana, the five maya koshas, and how we can deepen our practice through our understanding of these more subtle aspects of ourselves. As Amy writes in her book: “Yoga can teach us to constantly experience an awe toward life, both the physical and subtle.”  I particularly appreciated Amy’s advice to have patience, and to approach our practice lovingly. Listen in to this episode, and dive more deeply into your practice of yoga.  

THE YOGA HOUR TEAM COMMENTS: This conversation with Amy Landry highlighted for me the depth of yoga that is more than the physical asana yoga practice. Yoga is so much more and the clarity about practices are helpfulThe pancha koshas are discussed in detail, and for me, one of the helpful topics was on sadhana or daily spiritual practice. We can incorporate meditation, mantra, japa, puja and pranayama to daily practice while honoring the seasons of the year, the elements and the vedic calendar for festivities and worship. The encouragement to practice, whether you are new to yoga or a long time practitioner, will inspire.
