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 we practice paying attention, moving with ease of body and mind, and being efficient, our body becomes very capable and strong, and the mind is able to be calm and travel further inward, where we have direct access to your unique creativity, intuition, and feelings of connectivity.

Everything we need is already there. The challenge is letting go of all our stuff in the way.

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.

When we practice paying attention, whether in meditation, yoga (moving mediation), or simply walking down the street, we can choose to be at ease, or choose to be tense. It's a choice, and that choice is up to no one but us to decide.

Believing in yourself is essential to creating lasting change and a happy life.

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