Dive into the profound aspects of yoga that extend beyond physical practice and into the realms of unconditional love, service, and spiritual growth. Michael and Vijeth discuss the essence of Bhakti yoga, which centers on devotion and seeing unity in all beings. They emphasize the importance of acting with love, offering gratitude, and letting go of a scarcity mindset to embrace an abundance of giving and service.

The conversation delves into the transformative experiences of practicing yoga not just as exercise but as a spiritual discipline that helps manage stress, maintain balance, and navigate emotional challenges. By connecting with divine energy, yogis can serve others without feeling drained, achieving a balance between self-care and selflessness.

Listeners will also learn about the practical application of yogic principles in everyday life, including the integration of Niyamas. Vijeth touches on an upcoming retreat in Laos that focuses on deepening these practices through connection with nature and self-discovery.

This discussion is not just about the physical aspects of yoga but about enriching one’s spiritual life and enhancing personal well-being through dedicated practice and inner reflection. It invites listeners to explore how yoga can lead to less stress and more bliss, providing tools for self-healing and spiritual growth.
