YOGA
Why do people practise yoga?
The truth is that the practice of yoga is not about changing the brain, body, headstands, or even about gaining greater happiness and joy. If it were, it'd be just like taking a spinning class or doing a set of lunges at the gym. Yoga aims toward transcendence of all those things. In a culture in which we rush from one day to the next, yoga opens up the possibility of connecting to what we already have -- to who we already are.
Yoga is a holistic approach to well being. It has physical, emotional and spiritual dimensions. Sage Patanjali who compiled the first yoga philosophy defines yoga as an ability to control one's own random thoughts and achieve a stillness, a calmness that creates inner harmony.
Yoga has helped me and many clients regain connection with our internal self. This noticing and befriending sensations in our bodies leads to both change, healing and so much more.
Yoga is about removing any judgment and letting us be present to who we are now
