Meditations
“ Sanskrit words don’t have to be religious…
Sanskrit words can be used to simply replace the attachment, meaning & memories, we have to words in our own language.
For non-religious people, the term ‘Brahman’ or ‘God’ can be thought of as our spirit or the energy inside us.
Meditations should be done in a comfortable lying or seated position, with a straight back and the body and mind relaxed.
There have been many interpretations of these quotes over the centuries. Be flexible and open as you contemplate the words on these yoga cards, and allow the centuries of wisdom to guide you.

Created by Charlie Stewart-Brown, founder of Indiv Yoga, who has been studying and practicing yoga since 1995, and today holds retreats and yoga teacher training courses around the world.
When Charlie started suffering from seizures due to chronic anxiety, she found peace in dedicating herself to studying and meditating on yoga philosophy texts. Having become disheartened by the modern perception of Yoga, she decided to share this knowledge in the form of the Living Yoga 108 cards to bring the true essence of yoga back into focus.
