We are excited for our summer edition of The Devi Book Club, where will be exploring The Yamas & Niyamas: Exploring Yoga’s Ethical Practice by Deborah Adele.
Many people have awareness or a spiritual practice, but still find themselves repeating patterns in relationships, communication, boundaries, and daily life. These patterns are often subtle and not always easy to see clearly.
This space is designed to slow things down and look more honestly at how we relate to ourselves and others, using the Yamas and Niyamas as a framework for reflection.
Throughout this 6 session series, we will move through the Yamas and then the Niyamas, allowing space for discussion, awareness, and integration.
Summer Book Selection:
The Yamas & Niyamas: Exploring Yoga’s Ethical Practice by Deborah Adele
A simple reading map will be shared. We will follow it loosely and create space for organic flow through the topics each meeting.
What you will experience:
• Group discussion and shared reflection
• Space to notice patterns in real time
• A grounded, non performative approach to practice
• Integration of these teachings into daily life
Session themes include working with non violence and truth, exploring scarcity and attachment, looking at energy and boundaries, and deepening awareness through self study and surrender.
This container is ideal for those who are interested in deepening their practice beyond the physical, who are noticing recurring patterns in their lives, and who want a space to reflect without pressure to have it all figured out.
It is also a supportive space for yoga practitioners who want to expand their understanding of yoga beyond asana, and for teachers who wish to begin integrating more philosophy into their classes in a grounded and accessible way.
