5 Signs You Might Have Yogic Superpowers

Most yoga teacher trainings focus on the first and second practical(!) padas (chapters) of the Yoga Sutras. Do yourself a favor and keep reading into the third and fourth padas, and things start to get really interesting!...

Patañjali starts going line by line through the yogic superpowers. He talks about levitation, invisibility, reading others’ minds, and so on and so forth!

But what about the yogi in 2024? Here are some superpowers I’ve noticed in my yogi friends. They might not be levitating (or at least not in public!), but here’s what I’ve noticed about them, and you might be beginning to notice in yourself—

1 You can SEE the light of infinite creation at the center of everyone’s heart space.

2 You can HEAR two different ideas and hold space for both at the same time without judgment.

3 You can FEEL compassion for other’s predicaments while staying grounded in a state of equanimity such that you don’t get swept away, too.

4 You can TASTE the pleasures of life while staying anchored into the fundamental truth that “this too shall pass.”

And my all time favorite—

5 You can SMELL bullsh*t from a mile away—yogis have this fine-tuned sense of smell that reveals real versus fake.

🪄 What’s YOUR yogic superpower?
