the yoga of blogging

Because I'm a yoga teacher, I get asked a lot, "do you have a daily yoga practice?" At first, I might say no, because although I hate to admit it, there are certainly days that I don't roll out my mat. On the other hand, though, I'd have to say that I absolutely have a daily yoga practice. The yoga of life... I find myself incorporating the philosophies of yoga on a daily basis from very small moments (breathe deeply, Kim, breathe deeply) to huge ways (non-violence, self study, compassion and kindness towards others). When my neck and shoulders are aching, I know which physical poses will alleviate my pain. I truly believe that once one starts practicing yoga, the yoga gets into them. It certainly can shift perspective in huge ways.
