Autumn And Aparigraha - The Yogic Practice Of Letting Go | Ep 28

Host Liz Albanis explores Aparigraha. The yogic practice of non-attachment from Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. How nature can show its importance. When nature lets go, it isn’t failing. It’s preparing, conserving energy, and making space for what comes next.  'Stuff' can quietly run your nervous system. There has been some evidence to show the linkage between clutter and mental health. Liz's experience of living with ADHD, the cycle of losing things, searching, and spiralling can be exhausting. Liz also shares how fear of burglary and a past experience can turn belongings into something you guard. Rather than something that supports you. Liz also reflects on what changed after the 2024 fire.  And the loss of irreplaceable items and how that kind of shock can put attachment into perspective without dismissing grief. Key Topics:Letting go of habits, thought patterns, and samskaras is often harder than donating a box of things. How clutter and possessions can create suffering rather than joyPerspective shift that comes after a fire and unexpected loss How a missing object can fuel resentment and rumination Svadhyaya self-study as the starting point Tips for letting goPowerful body-based metaphor for grasping and softening. Error: Please note:  the recording has not been edited to reflect this error, rather it is stated here.  Harris, G, (2019)  The Language of Yin - Luminary Press was incorrectly referenced as having the binding pose sequence.
