On Breathing and Yoga
Today , for some reason, I found myself restless in mind and spirit. I did not have a sense of satisfaction nor ease I made a greater effort than usual to focus on my breathing, to actually be aware of my inhalation when told to inhale and my exhalation when told to exhale. I wanted to see if I could quiet down the chatter that was occurring in my head during yoga. I often find that during yoga practice or any form of exercise, my mind drifts at some point and I lose focus on the present. Focusing on the breathing and thinking are often difficult to achieve simultaneously.Perhaps we were designed that way intentionally to remind us of our truer spiritual nature and to get out of our egoic thinking. |

You are invited to share your experiences about your yoga practice. What brought you to yoga and why do you stay with it? What has changed for you since you have begun practicing yoga? Do you feel a sense of community in a yoga class? Do you feel the mind-body connection more since your practice? What yoga-related books and articles do you read?
