Mental/Emotional Layer and the Brain Mental Yoga Life

    • Self-Improvement

In this episode we'll be exploring the Mind/Brain, a fundamental part of our Yoga practice. 

Our mind is constantly active, and when it's not balanced we can feel uncomfortable or suffering. 

It's hard to focus on anything else when our mind is constantly active with thoughts. We can feel inertia, sluggishness, apathy, lack of action, lack of understanding, fatigue, attachment, and hatred.

Yoga practices can help us free our minds from constant chatter.  When the brain is no longer clouded by extra thoughts, we can feel peace, love, joy, and freedom once the brain is no longer clouding the higher mind with the twist and turns.

Dive into how these components affect us on deeper levels with topics like Fight or Flight responses; mental discomfort & imbalanced mental tendencies; Mind vs Brain dynamics. Join us for some serious practical wisdom.

Plus, we're exploring brain anatomy with a focus on fight-flight-freeze reactions along with subtle body connections to physical anatomy. To help understand further concepts like chakras and gunas - for healthy mental tendencies - this episode will also bring us closer to separating mind versus brain.

Learn about the five essential layers, known as Koshas, which make up our being. We'll explore Manomaya Kosha - or mental/emotional layer- plus touch on chakras and gunas in relation to mind vs brain balance. Finally, comfort levels will be discussed with signs for identifying imbalanced Guna/Mental tendencies presented along the way.
