Astanga Yoga practiced in its correct sequential order, gradually leads the practitioner to rediscover his or her fullest potential on all levels of human consciousness ~ physical, psychological, and spiritual. Through this practice of correct breathing (ujjayyi pranayama), energy locks (bandhas), and gazing points (dristi), we gain control of the senses and a deep awareness of ourselves. By maintaining this discipline with regularity and devotion, one acquires steadiness of body and mind.
