Jnana Yoga explained or unlocking the path to wisdom
The word jñāna in Sanskrit means attaining knowledge of the true nature of reality, an exploration inwards to understand your essence beyond surface thoughts, feelings, and ego, like peeling the layers of an onion, with our self as the core, linked or connected to a higher Self in the universe. Learning and acquiring knowledge becomes an instrument to come closer to the truth and the divine essence inherent in all beings.
Yin Yoga and TCM: Autumn season- main element, organs and emotions
An important component to autumn is the feeling of letting go, associated also with this period of acute changes. Autumn is a wonderful time to reflect on what is no longer needed and to let go of what no longer serves us. This can translate into something big like letting go of a person, a home or a situation, but can also refer to letting go of a belief, way of living or material possessions for instance. It's natural for us as humans to resist change or uncertainty, but once we understand how life itself is made entirely of change and uncertainty, then we might come to an understanding and acceptance of this in the long run and offer space for new beginnings and growth.
