Season 2, Episode 3: The Ninth Limb of Yoga with Nicole Turner
You may be familiar with The 8 Limbs of Yoga or the eightfold path of yoga, practical guidelines from the ancient Yoga Sutras text on how to live a meaningful purposeful life for yourself. But what comes after you’ve strengthened these 8 limbs? Nicole Turner, a sound healer + yoga instructor, believes the next step on your path could include a ninth limb of yoga: giving back to your community.
In this week’s episode, Nicole + Marta discuss:
- a brief overview of the eightfold path
- tips on how to incorporate these principles into your daily life
- the concept of a 9th limb: giving back to others
- Nicole’s work in community service, conservation + social justice, including her recent retreat with the Taktham Village of Indians in Joshua Tree
- why strengthening the relationship with yourself is vital to support your work in helping others
