The beauty of yoga is that it meets you where you are. We live in a competitive culture, where we can be competitive with ourselves and others, often pushing ourselves beyond our limits to be the best.

"The ultimate essence of yoga is the contact and the union between the individual consciousness and the divine consciousness." - Raphael, Essence

Smile to take you through the miles in the practice. Maintaining a gentle smile relaxes the body and mind. It helps you enjoy the yoga postures much more.

Practicing first thing in the morning allows you to avoid distractions and start the day off with vibrancy and positive intentions. However, if you are not able to wake up early to practice, don’t let it be an excuse to skip practicing altogether!

"When meditation is mastered, the mind is unwavering like the flame of a lamp in a windless place." - Bhagavad Gita

Focus on the yoga, not the pants, since wearing comfortable yoga wear—breathable clothes is what really matters. Avoid wearing excessive jewelry as it can get in the way of your yoga practice.

"Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured." - B.K.S. Iyengar
