Since completing my Yoga teacher training I’ve been struggling to find the words to express how what I learned changed the way I see the practice of Yoga.

In my meditation this morning a little bubble of clarity burst and these words came to me:

Think of Yoga as a Tool for Manifesting Love. Love in and for your physical body, love at the level of your energy and breath. Love in your thoughts, emotions and mental experience. A vehicle for your intuitive heart to learn to express itself more clearly. A lense through which you can view the love, joy and beauty of the world more clearly.

The deeper I dive into Yoga the more true this becomes and the more immediately the world seems to need it!

As Yoga teachers I think this is our challenge. To find the words, the tools and the practices that allow people to experience this for themselves, in their bodies, minds, hearts and lives. And that's the difference with Yoga, I don't have to ask you to believe in something that I say. If you do the practices you can experience the sensations first had for yourself. No faith required.

It is transformative. If you’ve only attended one yoga class but it touched you in some way then you have opened the door to understanding and feeling what I’m talking about.

Return to the mat, meditation cushion, breathing practice, mantra. Apply the tools and feel the love blossom in your life. 🙏🏼
