Do not look for joy anywhere else. It is living in you, and gives meaning to all Existence.

I think it's possible for all of us to use our yoga to distract us from our yoga. Because we get so caught up in the form that we forget the soul.

Do not look for joy anywhere else. It is living in you, and gives meaning to all Existence.

Joy is big. Joy lives in your own drunken electrons, billions of them, spinning and dancing without end in their own intimate Universe, longing for You.

I believe myself capable of great things. Some days it feels as if I can't do it alone. It is nice to know I don't have to.

Living your yoga is not just doing it, but being it.

Follow your nature. The practice is really about uncovering your own pose; we have great respect for our teachers, but unless we can uncover our own pose in the moment, it's not practice - it's mimicry. Rest deeply in Savasana every day. Always enter that pratyahara (withdrawn state) every day. And just enjoy yourself. For many years I mistook discipline as ambition. Now I believe it to be more about consistency. Do get on the mat. Practice and life are not that different.
