The 8 limbs of yoga include Yamas, Niyamas, Asana, Pranayama, Pratyahara, Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi. In western cultures, people are often only familiar with the physical postures (Asana) in yoga, but the 8 limbs help to create full mind and body practice that is designed to help us find ease and reduce suffering in our minds and bodies.
