Embracing Satya: The Power of Truthfulness in Navigating Grief
Today, we dive into Satya (Truthfulness). Satya, the Sanskrit term for truthfulness, is one of the cardinal virtues in yoga philosophy. As the second of the five yamas, Satya challenges us to live and speak our truth. More than simply avoiding falsehood, Satya compels us to embrace honesty in a way that aligns our actions with our true selves. This becomes profoundly significant when dealing with grief, as the person we often deceive the most is ourselves.
