Niyamas, the second limb of yoga is about observing onself and through observation we care for our self and thus transform our being by way of the following
Sauca - Cleanliness fa body, hear-mind and surroundings
Santosa -Contentment
Tapas - practice
Svadyaya - study by and of oneself
Isvara -Pranudhana - Humility and faith
My current practice of of Self care includes yoga asana practice, dhyana, prayer and music.
Most days self care practice seems to flow as a daily routine in life, one can certainly feel the benefits of asanas especially the twist module as aches and pains seldom hinder. Also the sense on calm during prayers and dhyana when one surrenders to the Self.
Most important Self care practice I need to incorporate is to keep quite, of course the ego always has something to say but I have noticed that it is motivated only when it is presented with opportunity mostly during conversations with others, thoughts racing when we read or watch something.
