Eat like you love yourself. Move like you love yourself. Speak like you love yourself. Act like you love yourself.

Each exhale allows us to let go of the moment that has just passed.

What you practice on the mat is what you end up doing in your life.

External means of escape like alcohol, drug use, and even overeating are a means of pushing uncertainty away and covering it up temporarily. And they may feel comforting for a moment, but I don't need to tell you that eventually they will cause more trouble than they ever solve.

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.

The practice of being at ease also gives you the strength and stamina to pursue all that you find when you connect inward.

A successful tree pose probably won't change your life. Learning how to keep your breath easy, long, and deep no matter what the circumstance? That absolutely will.
