Happy Sunday Yogis! This will be our second to last Niyamas day of the year, since we will soon begin our December Holidays special Yamas practices. Today we will take a Personal Day with an extra Niyamas practice of your choice!
Today is also Wildlife Conservation Day. I care about both animals and conservation.. please remember that we all share this world, and consider making a donation to the World Wildlife Fund to help protect endangered animals and their environments!
Today’s Daily Yogi Practice is to practice any of the 5 Niyamas or personal observances of our choice. I am practicing Saucha with some cleaning and organizing, and Svadhyaya with a journal day! Need more ideas?
- Practice Saucha with cleaning your surroundings or a personal deep-cleaning
- Practice Santosha with mindfulness practices or living in the moment
- Practice Tapas with a workout or getting something done you have been putting off
- Practice Svadhyaya with a journal day or reading a sacred text of your choice
- Practice Ishvara Pranidhana with acceptance and non-attachment with your actions and any difficult situations
Holiday Yamas Practice Schedule
We will start soon by counting down the 5 Yamas with 5 days of Ahimsa (non-harming), 4 days of Satya (truthfulness), and 3 days of Asteya (non-stealing). Then we will have a full week of Brahmacharya for the week of Christmas in the United States.. a time that I will enjoy the focus on moderation! We will focus on a different way to practice each of these Yamas each day.
