Thanks for watching. Check out the next video in this series, explaining the purpose of yoga poses or 'asanas' : ua-cam.com/video/rj9aqoV5zLI/v-deo.html
What strikes me is that these principles are almost exactly what I have been developing unconsciously since I started to practice meditation to confront all sorts of problems and suffering suddenly popping up in my life. So they are really part of yoga. Not 'yoga as exercise' as most modern people recognise today. If my understanding is correct, meditation is also yoga. So I confirm from my own experience that these are all connected and it is really a pity if a yogi neglects these elements beyond the mat
I discovered your channel recently while I was researching yoga and its meaning in full. I found your energy and self expression a very soothing experience. You are at peace with yourself and you're sharing your wisdom with us in what you believe to be a truthful way of living a more kinder experience in life. Thank you, so much 💚
It's really interesting to me how many of these things I had already implemented into my life. I've only just started my Yoga journey properly, and it's nice to know I was already doing a lot of it.
I'm currently about to complete an intense 200 hour yoga teacher training and your videos really help me to revise what I'm learning here. You make excellent examples and explain everything really well. Thank you so much!
I have only watched a few videos so far but you are really pedagogue, clear and easy to follow - and English is not my native language - so thank you very much ! I am learning a lot from you :)
I really like your videos, which are rich, precise, and comprehensible. I am now in the yoga teacher training program, trying to understand yoga philosophy beyond physical postures. Your shareings help me better understand it. Thank you so much. Could you share more about yoga mediation and yoga history? I would love to learn more from your channel.
I'm enjoying this series very much. I love how thoughtful your explanations are of the Yamas and Niyamas. I feel like I'm learning so much, and am gaining a new appreciation for the mental and spiritual aspect of yoga!
brilliant explanations, thank you. I used to know all of this about 40 years ago then life got in the way 😂 You are helping me to remember and embrace it again. I am so grateful.
@@EmilyRowellYoga yes it has been fantastic. Even viewed them on the “big telly” so hubby had no option but to join me or go wash up! Lol. He’s loving them too.
I've just discovered your channel Emily! Thanks for such a clear video and I love your explanation that you are born as your true self, I totally relate to that... I feel like the experience of living creates so many boundaries and defenses within ourselves! As far as I'm aware, Bramacharya is pronounced with a "ch" sound instead of a hard "c" sound. Thank you for a great video! 🥰
Thanks for this, Ive been learning more and more since starting to follow Flow Vids following the first lockdown here, Most vids are from the USA where little of the Spiritual side is mentioned, Ive also been wanting to follow practitioners here in the UK, so keep it up.
i found your channel today and it is really a great one! i love the kind of research you have done to present this video. well, i would love to point towards the pronunciation of brahmacharya .. in this the ch is pronounced like the ch in 'chair' and also non attachment include non attachment to the result of your work.. that is do your karma with all your heart and you should be content whether you win or lose because your focus is on doing your karma sincerely and not on the result.. All the best for your channel 👍🏻
Thank you so much for your comment, yes I've been told I mispronounced brahmacharya so will make sure I get it right next time! I really appreciate your helpful feedback, thank you 😊
You explain everything so nicely. I’m a Hindu. I’m aware of all these concepts but the way you put makes it so much more easier to understand. Just a little pronunciation mistake i noticed … the Ch in Brahmacharya is pronounced same as the ‘ch’ in chair or church. The ch shouldn’t sound like K. Thank you 🙏🏻😊
I love your content and I know I’m super late to your videos but I enjoy the breakdowns. I just started my interest in Yoga. I’ve researched about “Ashtanga Yoga” (8 limbs) through the starting stages. Can’t wait to keep learning! Thanks so much.
Hi Emily, I love your videos! I just found your channel. I'm from Argentina, living in South Korea. I'm now thinking of taking my yoga practice more seriously and study a little more. I like your book recommendations and the off-the-mat series :) Saludos!!
How does yoga and pregnancy work? I do prenatal yoga (asanas) now but how does that go into the 8 limbs of yoga? Is there a difference? Am I still aiming to get to the 8th limb and not just the westernized version of yoga?
The book is 'The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali'. This is an ancient text written by Sage Patanjali, but the translation that I like is written by Alistair Shearer :)
There are no different interpretations about any terms you mentioned in any whatsoever Indian school of thoughts. These terms and what they precisely mean are precisely defined in the source texts and if they are not there then what they mean would be taken from a Scripture which supercedes the scriptural authority of the source text in terms of precedence. And these moral disciplines are not at all needed for body exercises, though any good habit invariably impacts your subconscious mind and going forward, in a subtle way influences your overall health too. These disciplines are primarily for someone who has set out to attain God. No doubt following them without the specific objective of God-realisation would anyway make you a good and moral human being and without you knowing consciously it will invariably push you forward in the path of God-realisation.
Brah-ma-cha-rya - Here's a breakdown of the pronunciation: "Brah" is pronounced like "brah" in "brother." "Ma" is pronounced like "ma" in "marble." "Cha" is pronounced like "cha" in "chocolate." "Rya" is pronounced like "ree-ya," where "ree" rhymes with "see."

Yes that's absolutely correct - meditation is a very important part of yoga :)

Great job summarizing ! Thx for video! Brahmacharya - the “ch” is like in cha cha

Thank you Alexandra, I'm glad you are finding the videos helpful :)
Suggestion: please make a video to introduce some good books both about philosophy and practice of Yoga.
That's a great idea, I will definitely add it to the list! Thanks :)
Very helpful and clear explanations
I appreciate the simple yet significant explanation. Love and light. ❤

You are so welcome! It's amazing how quickly we can forget all of this important stuff - I hope this refresher was helpful :)
@@EmilyRowellYoga yes it has been fantastic. Even viewed them on the “big telly” so hubby had no option but to join me or go wash up! Lol. He’s loving them too.
These videos are absolutely lovely! Thank you for taking the time to film them ❤️
Just found you Emily, great reminder of the 8 limbs … thank you so much 🙏

Thank you :) Yes I've been corrected on the 'ch' sound in Brahmacharya, I really appreciate the feedback!
Very well explained. Thank you!
Thank you for bringing the simple truths to people. bless you.
Really interesting and very helpful Emily. You explain it so naturally and freely.
Thanks for this, Ive been learning more and more since starting to follow Flow Vids following the first lockdown here, Most vids are from the USA where little of the Spiritual side is mentioned, Ive also been wanting to follow practitioners here in the UK, so keep it up.
Thanks for your comment Alan, I'm glad you've found my videos helpful in deepening your understanding of yoga :)

Thank you so much for your comment and for the helpful pronunciation correction - I will make sure to pronounce the 'ch' correctly in future :)
Sadly, you are a very uninformed Hindu and don't even see the problem of today's yoga appropriation.
Love these videos
Thank you 🙌🏾
Fascinating stuff, thank you Emily 🙏🏻
I am very grateful for the content you share with us.

Fantastic, just the sort of summary I was looking for, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much Emily. I just started watching your videos and they are really helpful.
Thank you Jenisha :)
Hey Emily you keep it so real I truly appreciate you 💯😊👌
So well explained ♥️✨ thank you 🙏
Thanks Poppy, I'm glad you found it helpful :)

What was the little book you mentioned again and the author please? 💗🙏🏻
The book is 'The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali'. This is an ancient text written by Sage Patanjali, but the translation that I like is written by Alistair Shearer :)
Also do you have to do asanas every time before meditating
😮 but scrolling is how i found you!
Nice video...
Just that the "ch" in Brahmacharya is pronounced as the "ch" in church... :)
Thank you Tanya, I've been made aware of this so will make sure to pronounce it correctly in future!

Thank you this so helpful! I've been corrected before so I know I pronounced it incorrectly in this video. Your description makes it very clear 👍🏻
