What to expect in the Yoga In El Salvador episode of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast During the course of our conversation, Lianik wove in so many insights about the multidimensionality of the practice of yoga. She defined Raja Yoga and Jnana Yoga and then expanded upon them, why they are the paths of yoga she has been drawn to. She explained how the physical dimension of yoga, is the most limited of the human being. That’s why the asana practice is so accessible to everyone, and why it’s only the first layer of yoga. It’s only one of the branches— there are seven others! Lianik shared beautiful thoughts around all the dimensions around the practice and path of yoga.
