Self-Reflection Through Practice

Kevin Courtney

Yoga Every Day

Observe your thoughts, feelings, and behavior from an objective perspective is central to the practices of yoga. To study habitual patterns through meditation, contemplation, and the study of ancient texts is what the yoga tradition calls svadhyaya, or ‘self study.’ Join this reflective practice to help explore your own inner terrain. The practice includes moon salutations, longer-held standing postures, seated twists, meditation, and contemplation. Like moonlight reflecting off of a calm lake, so the mind stills and the ever emergent light of the Self can be seen.
