Thank you for introducing me to these concepts.

I’ve been learning about the yogic concept of Santosha (contentment) and how to apply it in these times that I feel lost without my sister. Santosha is one of five Niyamas in Yoga that refer to the duties or services we offer ourselves. The Niyamas are Saucha (cleanliness), Santosha (contentment), Tapas (discipline), Svadyaya (self-study), and Isvara Pranidhana (surrendering to a power greater than ourselves). By honoring our observances of self and creating an inner sanctum of truth, we are freer to feel gratitude and accept what our lives are, right here and right now.

Thank you for introducing me to these concepts. I do not practice yoga (though I should because it would be great for my ridiculously inflexible muscles and joints) but those philosophical concepts resonate with me.
