Why you need yoga and mindfulness practice

Having a sustained yoga, mindfulness practice works on you
when you don’t even know it’s working.

Once on my mat, I learn to look inward. My body tells me what’s going on and watching my mind tells me the stories that are running at that moment.

Our minds continue to rattle off dialog, and much of the time we aren’t aware of those conversations.
We hold pain and emotion in the body many times for years and years.


🧡  Having time on the mat gives us an opportunity to open up, feel the pain, the sensations, and release it.
This practice of observation guides us off the mat to see things, events, and people in our lives in a more compassionate way.
Appreciation for this journey we all go through requires us to look not only with new eyes but with openness and love for ourselves and others. Through this practice the body, the breath, and the mind transform the person that is being, that is doing and at the end that sees.”
