When we’re in the world of distraction we have a momentum that brings us to move distraction, to more overwhelm. He starts talking about the “almost a chakra” around your ear… and what happens when the temporal bone floats. This episode is a gateway into the subtle body experience via Tias’s transmission.
Meet Tias Little and his newest book, [Yoga of the Subtle Body: A Guide to the Physical and Energetic Anatomy of Yoga](http://amzn.to/2pyegnQ). Of course, many of you have already been touched by the depth of Tias’s work. In this episode Tias describes his fascination with exploring and decoded the subtle body, and gives us a guidebook to know our own technology, our own unending interiors, and the great peace within.
I rap with Tias Little about the Yoga of the Subtle
Body:
- How the subtle Body unlocks a better human experience
- Becoming present through understanding your past as vibratory patterns + memories
- Discover the Soundless Place within you
- Unlock time by opening space with the temporal bone around your ear
- Processing emotions in the present
What you’ll get out of tuning in:
- How Tias starts his day
- Why you want to start to sit and explore your breath
- What is happens as Tias grows older and wiser
