Instructions

To live as a Yogi, you need not mold your days away from the materialistic world.

Instead, the Yogic lifestyle teaches you to use your material belongings without excess.

You can use the latest gadgets, nurture beautiful relationships, have great food (Satvic, of course!), be ambitious, and explore new hobbies or other fun activities while remaining rooted in your spiritual practices. 😎

Here’s how you can blend your spiritual practices into your everyday:

☀️ Rise & Study Gyana Yoga - After a good night’s sleep, the brain is fresh to absorb new knowledge well.

Spend early morning time in spiritual study to feed yourself with limitless wisdom.

🤸‍♀️ Bring movement Kriya Yoga - The body functions well when it moves regularly.

Take care of the body with daily practice of Asanas and Pranayama just before setting to work.

👨‍💻Work mindfully Karma Yoga - “What goes around comes back around.” Our actions and intentions come back at us.

Work for a purpose; your actions and intentions will be a divine gift for yourself and humanity.

[Note: If you are good at what you do, and your karma is good, you will never lack money to fulfill your essential needs.💸]

✨ Let divinity in Bhakti Yoga - Live with thanks, love, and trust in a higher power protecting your good heart!

Chant Kirtan to express the divine love that you hold within.
