More than posing

The Eight Limbs of Ashtanga Yoga are:

Yama – code of conduct, self-restraint
Niyama – spiritual observances, commitments to practice, such as study and devotion
Āsana – integration of mind and body through physical activity
Pranayama – regulation of breath leading to integration of mind and body
Pratyahara – abstraction of the senses, withdrawal of the senses of perception from their objects
Dharana – concentration, one-pointedness of mind
Dhyana – meditation (quiet activity that leads to samadhi)
Samādhi – the quiet state of blissful awareness, superconscious state.
