There is a “yoga body” aesthetic, which is long and sinewy. I am curvy. I get praised on a regular basis, with people telling me, “Wow, you're so brave,” simply for showing my curvy body. Being brave is going to war; being curvy is not brave. We need to be careful with how we use our words.

Yoga has expanded beyond asana for me. It's how I live my life and currently I'm throwing myself into a meditation practice.

There is always room for change, but you have to be open to that change.

There's always two sides to the coin if you have the patience to see.

Everyone needs to start somewhere.

So much magic lies beyond our fears.
