Happiness in 8 cups of tea, about the eightfold path of yoga

Description

In Happiness in 8 cups of tea, I take you on a journey along the Eightfold Path of yoga, the path that describes yoga as a lifestyle and is more than practicing yoga during a class at home or in the studio.
Yoga means connection, to your heart, yourself and the world around you.
I was touched by the Eightfold Path of yoga during my first yoga class, there I discovered that yoga is a lifestyle.
It is about living non-violently, about discovering your own truth and expressing it, about being grateful and content and continuing to develop yourself.
Around my 30th birthday, I decided to go on a journey.
I wanted to reinvent myself and discover if happiness is indeed an attitude to life.
Buddha’s quote is a daily reminder that happiness does not come from outside, that it is within.
Yet it took a very long time before I could really live and feel this, I kept looking for something outside myself to become happy for a long time.
After 5 years of traveling without improvement, I came to a turning point and started following the Eightfold Path of Yoga.
To find peace, live more effortlessly and lightly and experience more freedom. In Happiness in 8 cups of tea, I show you that the elements of the Eightfold Path are very applicable in every life, even though the teachings are over 2,000 years old.
It is always applicable in your life precisely because the teachings are so universal and also everyday.
By embracing yoga as a lifestyle, you experience more peace, love and freedom.
