Anandamaya kosha

Welcome to episode 57 of The Breathing Deeply Yoga Therapy and Meditation podcast.

The Anandamaya kosha is the part of ourselves that is pure bliss.

In this episode, we explore the Anandamaya kasha or Bliss body, which is the innermost kosha in the 5 kosha system we teach here at Breathing Deeply. 

Learn more about the Anandamaya Kosha and tools to balance this layer of our being through devotion and ritual. Discover a devotional deity yoga practice to balance this kosha and learn why yoga nidra can also help us access the bliss body.
