The most important pieces of equipment you need for doing yoga are your body and your mind.

What we're trying to do in yoga is to create a union, and so to deepen a yoga pose is to actually increase the union of the pose, not necessarily put your leg around your head.

Yoga is the method to bring or uncover the union that exists. That all things are relative and are in relationship and that nothing is singular or by itself.

Yoga is really trying to liberate us from ... shame about our bodies. To love your body is a very important thing - I think the health of your mind depends on your being able to love your body.

Philosophy is unbelievably inspiring to me.

When you stand in the present moment, you are timeless.

When someone's really sick and their family is tired and concerned about what will take place, those are the times that they need a support group around them to take care of them as a human being.
