The practices of Yama and Niyama are yoga's method for purifying our minds by changing our attitudes and behaviors to allow more subtle spiritual awareness to awaken within us. We are constantly bombarded in life by various experiences that can be disruptive. Learning to cope with life's difficulties and live in equanimity, deepening our spiritual connection is the foundation of yoga. There is nothing in yoga more essential than these practices.
