Mysore Yoga Paris – Closer Together Kia Naddermier & Yotam Agam

This meditation explores bringing our Swara - the flow through our right solar and left lunar streams of consciousness - into balance. In yoga this is traditionally done through harmonising the flow through our left and right nostril where these subtle breath channels, nadis terminate. There are many practices devoted to this end in classical Hatha Yoga texts. This episode offers a beautifully crafted live recording from Kia's In-depth Development Training that we invite you to ex...

An embodied approach to yoga requires us to learn our body's subtle language so we can attune what and how to practice to care for its changing nature.
