Consciousness gets entangled in the lower bodies of thoughts, emotions, and past experiences, which leads to suffering and distraction from our inherent joy.

Ultimately, yoga is the process of transcending these layers and experiencing our natural state of bliss, love, and oneness with the universe.<\/span><\/p>\n
