033 Pratyahara (Withdrawal of the senses)

Thoughts? Questions? Feel free to get in touch - we'd love to hear from you :-)This episode discusses the fifth limb of the eight limbs of yoga, Pratyahara, which means to withdraw the senses. We discuss what this does (and does not) mean and how it can help to have a positive effect on mental health and calming both the body and the nervous system. We also discuss how it is the first of the 8 limbs that starts a yogi's journey towards total mastering meditation. Emma and Andy try to keep their podcasts light-hearted and unedited, wherever possible, allowing for a more natural conversation style and an authentic representation of their characters. They aim to provide information and entertainment by mixing their knowledge, research and personal experiences with debate and (occasional) opposing view points.  :-)If you would like more information about Emma and Andy or Learn Live Give and what they are trying to achieve, please go to www.learnlivegive.co.uk for more information. Also, please feel free to get in touch with us if you have any questions or queries, thoughts or feedback on our podcasts. We'd love to hear from you.
