Yoga term of the week: Laya Yoga

by — June 27, 2017

Welcome to our weekly series dedicated to helping you navigate the confusing lingo of yoga. Beginner or not, this ‘yoga dictionary’ will be here every Tuesday to quench your curiosity about a new, bizarre yogi word.

This week’s term:

Laya Yoga

 Laya yoga is simply an advanced form of tantric yoga (which can be found in our yoga dictionary) where the energy in your chakras gradually dissolves.

Once you feel like taking your yoga practice and learning beyond the studio (say, to a beach), check out some yoga holidays and retreats and indulge your inner yogini/yogi.

What yoga lingo confuses you? Let us know in the comments below and we’ll feature it in this series! For a full list, head to our yoga dictionary.

You can find Meghan living in London, drinking American coffee and eating any Thai food or sushi you put in front of her. Hailing from the barren, snowy lands of North Dakota (that's just north of South Dakota), she still calls the pavement a 'sidewalk,' and constantly gets mistaken for a Canadian because of her Midwestern accent.
