Freedom of Movement: On the Mat and Beyond Borders If we recognize movement as essential to liberation in yoga, why do we accept policies that criminalize it in the world?

Grateful that yoga is a practice.

Whenever I get to my mat to practice, yoga doesn’t ask me where I’ve been or makes me feel bad if it’s been a while.

Whenever I get to my mat, yoga says “now the practice of yoga begins.” 🤍 #YogaSutras

One of my favorite things about yoga is that it’s a practice. That means every time you practice you can meet yourself where you are, try new things, adjust as needed, and build that mind-body-soul connection.

Every day I have to meet myself where I’m at. Some days that looks like waking up before 6 am + morning asana and some days that means working from the couch 🙂‍↕️

It’s tempting to use yoga as a way to ignore the world’s heaviness—to retreat into stillness and avoid discomfort.

But that’s not practicing yoga.

Sit with this thought: Yoga is not about escapism.
