This is why I started my yoga journey. I have struggled a lot with doing what felt right for me and what made me happy and excited. Most of the time, I chose to do what I thought I should do and not what I needed to do. This led to a lot of unfortunate and unnecessary sadness and a constant feeling of discomfort. I felt this way for so long and eventually it would feel suffocating.

 

So, I sought out everything I could to alleviate this pressure. I have found a lot of activities that let me escape everything that was causing my stress. I love to read books and I love to dance and I also love to sew. These things have brought me great solace in a world of the unknown. Another solace came for me about two years ago, and that was yoga.

​

Not only has the physical practice (asana) of yoga been beneficial but the whole philosophy has changed my outlook on life and the way I look inward. I am a student of Hatha yoga and the Eight Limbs of Patanjali which have had such a positive impact on my mental and emotional mindset. I am also a certified Yin Yoga teacher. The benefits of yoga are so great that I wanted to share it in my own way. And I hope that it can be a part of your life as well.
