Welcome to Bliss Body Therapy

---

In yoga philosophy, there is said to be five layers of the self. These layers are called koshas and are often referred to as sheaths or veils that continually open to one another. Imagine ripples on a lake seamlessly flowing from one to the next. Understanding the koshas can help guide you to a deeper understanding of yourself.

The layers of self are as follows: 

• Gross Body - Our physical cellular self, it is sustained by the five senses.
•  Prana Body - This is our breath body and is said to support our personal consciousness. 
• Mental Body - The space where our nervous system operates. It is responsible for mental functioning. Depression, anxiety, and our mental chatter lives here.
• Wisdom Body - In this space lives our intellect. It allows for observation without emotion and transforms knowledge into wisdom.
• Bliss Body - Said to be more of a state of mind than a space. This kosha is where our highest self lives. It is a culmination of all the other layers to our most perfect self and is the vessel of the soul. This space is often described as the state of consciousness between sleep and awareness. 

This is why we chose Bliss Body Therapy as our name. Everyone deserves to live within their bliss body. We believe that massage therapy and yoga can help induce this state naturally and is a perfect way for you to tune into your mind/body/spirit.
