Jivamukti Yoga is a path to enlightenment through compassion for all beings. The Jivamukti method is grounded in the original meaning of the Sanskrit word asana as “seat or connection” – relationship to the Earth.

Earth implies all of life. Citing Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra, which states that asana should be sthira and sukham, Jivamukti Yoga maintains that one’s relationship to others (asana) should be mutually beneficial and come from a consistent (sthira) place of joy and happiness (sukham).
The Five Tenets of Jivamukti Yoga
The core philosophy is expressed through 5 tenets, which form the foundation of Jivamukti Yoga.
Ahimsa
A nonviolent, compassionate lifestyle extending to other animals, the environment and all living beings.
Bhakti
