Everything you need to know is right there inside, waiting for you to tap in and discover it, and then hopefully do something about it.

It takes an honest look to observe our selves without judgment, and then to do something about it. Observing without judgment is the practice of yoga. Doing something about it is the stuff that makes up your life.

Why is balance important? From a life lesson standpoint, it's about learning to enjoy yourself without getting the ego involved.

Learning to savor the moment keeps us from living in constant worry and fear and tension over things that haven't happened yet and may never come to pass. Practicing yoga helps us to undo these bad mental habits and stress triggers that we often unknowingly pick up along the way.

When your life is not in balance and you're struggling to achieve stability, practicing observation without judgment gets really interesting, and very useful. How? Because you can learn to distance yourself from the roller coaster ride of your emotions and circumstances but still enjoy the ride of life.

Everything you need to know is right there inside, waiting for you to tap in and discover it, and then hopefully do something about it.

Each inhale creates more space in our bodies.
