As we go through our current theme of awareness we're going a little bit deeper each week, like peeling away the layers of an onion. This week it's interoception - the way that we sense what's going on in our inner world. Breath, heartbeat, pain, hunger and the feelings that come with a super satisfying stretch.
Indeed onions are a pretty good metaphor for the eigth limbs of yoga. Each layer takes us a little bit deeper into our lived experience.
Fun onion fact - I studied disease resistance in red onions for my PhD so this image gives me mild flashbacks. The particular smell of rotten onions has never left me and I can tell just by the smell whether it's a bacterial or fungal disease 🤓
