About this collection
Many of us think yoga is just about the hour we spend on the mat, but the real work happens in the other twenty-three hours. Whether you are battling back pain from a desk job or struggling with restless nights, small, consistent adjustments to your daily routine—like the way you wake up or the light you expose yourself to—often do more for your health than a single intense workout. We have cataloged these specific, time-tested habits here so you can start applying them immediately.
Living Your Practice
Yoga is not just about the session you attend at our studios in Indiranagar, HSR Layout, or AECS Layout. It is about how you live your life. This library is designed to help you integrate yogic principles into your modern, fast-paced routine.
Prioritizing Spine Health
We see many students come to us with stiffness caused by long hours in front of screens. Our focus on spine health—which we emphasize heavily during World Spine Day—is not about performing complex poses. It is about understanding that your body is an instrument that must be kept clean, strong, and healthy. If you are experiencing chronic discomfort, our yoga therapy sessions offer more targeted, personalized movement patterns than general classes.
Daily Habits for Vitality
Transformation starts with small, daily decisions:
- Sleep Hygiene: It is not just about the hours you sleep, but the environment you create. We recommend removing TVs from the bedroom, using blackout curtains, and keeping your phone outside the room.
- Detoxification: Practices like oil pulling can help remove bacteria and detoxify the body. It is a simple, ancient technique that fits into any morning routine.
- Emotional Regulation: When anger or stress arises, don't identify with the emotion. Observe it. We offer techniques for raising emotional intelligence through breathwork and mindful communication.
Whether you need a full yoga therapy session for pain management or simply want to adopt a sattvic diet to improve your mental clarity, these resources are here to support your journey. If you are unsure where to start, our teachers are always available to help you build a routine that works for your unique needs.

I started Bodhi because I realized the corporate ladder was not where my peace was hidden. We are here to help you find that 24-hour smile by integrating ancient wisdom into your modern, chaotic life, whether you join us for a session or just practice these habits at home.
