In this episode, we explore the yogic principle of Saucha — often translated as cleanliness or purity — and why it has very little to do with perfection, and everything to do with clarity.

Saucha is one of the Niyamas in yoga, but it’s not a rule or a discipline. It’s an invitation to notice what we’re carrying — physically, mentally, emotionally, energetically — and what is quietly asking to be released.

We talk about how Saucha applies not just on the yoga mat, but in everyday life: in our homes, our bodies, our minds, our relationships, our digital worlds and even our patterns of worry.

This is a conversation about clearing space so life can move through us more freely.

In this episode, we explore:

• What Saucha really means in yoga (and why ‘purity’ is a misleading translation)
• The body as a vessel: food, energy and clarity
• Clutter, the home and energetic space
• Mental clutter, overthinking and thought hygiene
• Energetic attachments, boundaries and cord clearing — grounded and accessible
• Why worry is not care, but energetic pollution
• Social media, information overload and digital Saucha
• Email inboxes, unsubscribing and unfinished energetic loops
• Astrology and Saucha: how working with the Moon helps with energetic and emotional hygiene.
