Classical yoga is a multi-modal approach to the relief of suffering and experience of Self. Rishi Patanjali’s formulation of the eight limbs of yoga accounts for all facets of the human experience from emotional intelligence all the way up to transcendental knowledge. From an integrative well being perspective, much of this occurs via top-down and bottom-up information processing through the brain and body. In this lecture we will examine these mechanisms and see how they correlate with Western Science.
