Today's Stress-Less Tip, Monday, May 17
Posted every weekday
This week, Wrapping up the niyamas (the do’s) and how following their guidance reduces stress in our lives:
The sixth is Siddhanta Shravana - scriptural listening
Learning is uplifting.
It guides us, shapes us,
It creates inquiry and brings insight & awareness.
The Sanskrit word satsang can be translated as “meeting with truth”
or “company of the wise,”
where you gather together to listen to teachings.
An aim of yoga, is seeing the truth.
Sandra Anderson, in Yoga International’s article stated,
“Satsang allows us to see beyond the darkness of our fear, frustrations, hopelessness, and everyday small-minded concerns.
“Through satsanga we bask in the presence of those established in truth and wisdom, and experience that potential in ourselves.”
The application for stress relief:
Knowledge creates strength, it arms us.
Understanding the truth, guides us.
And we are long longer disturbed by the meaningless.
The yamas & niyamas create a less stressful life & environment.
And they create a better person in us all.
Namaste_^_
