In accordance with Patanjali’s Yogic Sutra’s, the eight limbs of yogic practice are:

1. Yama - universal mortality
2. Niyama - personal observances
3. Asanas - embodiment of energy: body postures
4. Pranayama - control of breath
5. Pratyahara - control of the senses: senselessness
6. Dharana - concentration
7. Dhyana - devotion and meditation
8. Samadhi - nirvana: union with the divine

Asana is truly ONLY the beginning…
