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

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.

That's what yoga teaches: how to be fully present now, no matter the circumstance.

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.

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

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.
