Most people jump straight to
🧘♂️ asana
🌬️ pranayama/ breath
🧠 meditation
But Patañjali didn’t.
He started with the Yamas-
the ethical foundations of the yogic path.
Because without a stable foundation…
higher practices don’t liberate, they amplify.
They amplify stress.
They amplify ego.
They amplify what hasn’t yet been integrated.
🌱 The Yamas are not rules.
They are natural laws of harmony.
• Ahimsa - are you being kind on all levels?
• Satya - are you living your truth or managing it?
• Asteya - where is your energy leaking?
• Aparigraha - what are you holding onto that’s holding you?
• Brahmacharya - what’s draining your life force?
Read that again… slowly.
🕊️ Patañjali called the Yamas mahāvratam
Great vows.
Universal.
Timeless.
Non-negotiable.
Not to restrict you, but to make you trustworthy enough for truth.
This Sunday inside The Well (of Bliss)
we’re gathering for a live Satsang on the Yamas.
Not as theory.
But as lived practice.
✨ How to embody them in modern life
✨ How they stabilise your nervous system
✨ How they prepare you for deeper breath, meditation & stillness
Which of the Yamas feels like the area where the most growth is available for you in 2026?
