414: The Art of Detachment, Aparigraha in Yoga | Yamas Series

This episode is Part 5 of our 10-part snack-sized Yoga philosophy series on the Yamas and Niyamas. Aparigraha is the 5th Yama which translates to detachment or the idea of non-hoarding, not keeping things or grasping on to things. Let's look a little bit deeper and think bigger about this idea of detachment.


We go far deeper into these Philosophies inside our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training. You can learn more about our Yoga Teacher Training program over here. If anything within this Yama and Niyamas Series sparks your interest we'd suggest to follow that spark... you never know where it may lead you!


This is what we spoke about during the episode

  • Our buying and consuming habits have gone too far for our planet.
  • The practice of detachment allows us to enjoy the journey and become more present. The journey is the goal, not the destination.
  • Nischala Joy Devi translates Aparigraha as acknowledging abundance. Take a moment to feel gratitude for the great blessings that surround you.
  • This practice of Detachment turned our lives and beliefs upside down in an amazing way!
  • If you're just joining us, we recommend starting from Part 1 to fully experience the logical flow of these yogic philosophies. Here's a quick recap: We've covered Ahimsa (non-violence), Satya (truth), Asteya (non-stealing), and Brahmacharya (proper use of energy). Listen to:
