"Weekly
classes are important, they can teach you a lot about yoga and its technique
but it's at home, by yourself, on your mat that you begin to experience
the deeper meaning of yoga. When you begin to practice alone, you find
the wisdom of yoga, speaking within your body. You learn to listen and
that's when you find the heart of yoga. Consistency of practice makes
yoga a part of your daily life."
|
"When
you plan your practice, remember, it's not the amount of time you put
in, but the consistency and quality of time. Twenty to thirty minutes
a day will do more for you than an hour or two, every now and then. Practicing
yoga is a choice you make, it's not something that just happens to you.
The more you integrate yoga into your daily life, the more you'll look
forward to doing it."
