assumptions

One of the best things about yoga is that it constantly surprises. Even if you have been practicing for years, there can be the subtle or not-so-subtle "aha" moments when a yoga posture that has been done many times before suddenly reveals something new. Sometimes this comes as the experience of some new flexibility or new-found strength. Sometimes a tiny cue or statement from an instructor can radically shift your thinking.

What were your assumptions about yoga before you started? Do you have assumptions about your current practice that may need revision or challenge? See if you can be open to looking at the thoughts and assumptions you make this week, both on and off the mat. How you decide to think about something can have a profound impact on your mood, behavior, attitude, and your personal yoga practice.

Have a peaceful day!
