Ethics of the Heart
MASTERCLASS Series
Explore your relationship with the yogic principles of universal morality
Ethics of the Heart is a Masterclass series about the first 2 limbs of the yogic path (as described in Patanjali’s yoga sutras.)
The Niyamas are known as the “observances” to how we relate to ourselves. They are empowered by the quality of Yamas in our life.
The Yamas are known as the “restraints” of how we relate to the world. They reflect how we choose to engage with the world around us.
To practice yoga means learning to honor it’s origin with all 10 of these fundamental principles~giving the foundation for a spiritual lifestyle.
Embody Ancient Ethics
If you live in the “western” world and have taken a yoga class before, chances are you did something that looked and sounded like yoga, but it was a workout.
This is how white supremacy has monetized and culturally appropriated yoga philosophy~using selective appreciation to remove the sacred foundation from yoga asana, the 3rd limb.
So In order to truly honor yoga as a whole, The Chi Tree reflects honoring your wholeness as a spiritually, sovereign being having a human experience.
The yogic path is divided into 8 branches because you are multidimensional. When you embody the truth of each limb that is how you achieve liberation (Moksha) or self-realization (Samadhi).
That’s what Ethics of the Heart is here for.
This series will not only educate you about the practical fundamentals of yoga philosophy, but each masterclass is designed for students who want to expand the understanding of their moral compass, embody spiritual sovereignty, and align action with what they claim to believe as ethical practice.
