Yama:
The 5 Moral Restraints
This week we draw our focus to Ahimsa and Satya, the first two restraints of the yamas. Ahimsa is being kind to all beings. Satya is being truthful in your speech and actions.
An inspiring and thrilling read for those interested in the Yamas and Niyamas (we will be focusing on in May) is Les Leventhal's *"

".
"How did the crystal-meth-addicted, alcohol-abusing porn star cross the road to become a beloved, world-famous yoga teacher?"- from

"Two Lifestyles, One Lifetime"
His personal journey is expressed through his addressing the yamas and niyamas and applying them to his life. Although we all have different pasts this hard look at applying age-old yoga philosophy to our modern lives.
