Sattva

February 16, 2020 · by Anne Barbaret · Yoga

While doing the postures, your mind should be in half-consciousness, which does not mean sleep. It means silence, emptiness, space, which can then be filled with an acute awareness of the sensations given by the posture. You watch yourself from inside. It is a full silence.

—Iyengar as cited in Perez-Christiaens, 2013, 67
