Lotus Pond Yogi Festival 2013


You know how a lot of motivational speakers urge people to live their passion? It may sound hokey but I'm doing just that. I started practicing yoga almost 10 years ago and it was love at first Downward Dog.

Yoga is a huge part of my life, ever since I stumbled upon the lotus room. I do a little bit every day.

In theory, practice and theory are the same. In practice they are not.
-Yogi Berra

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built.
-Rumi

When the breath wanders the mind also is unsteady. But when the breath is calmed the mind too will be still, and the yogi achieves long life. Therefore, one should learn to control the breath.
-Hatha Yoga Pradipika

You cannot always control what goes on outside. But you can always control what goes on inside.
-Mr. Yoga

Before you've practiced, the theory is useless. After you've practiced, the theory is obvious.
-David Williams

The most important pieces of equipment you need for doing yoga are your body and your mind.
-Rodney Yee

REAL Peace is always unshakable... 'Bliss is unchanged by gain or loss'
-Yogi Bhajan

Yoga has a sly, clever way of short circuiting the mental patterns that cause anxiety.
-Baxter Bell

Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured.
-B.K.S. Iyengar

Change is not something that we should fear. Rather, it is something that we should welcome. For without change, nothing in this world would ever grow or blossom, and no one in this world would ever move forward to become the person they're meant to be.

Here's to more compassion for yourself and others!

Peace -
