That couldn’t be further from the truth. I was not naturally good at yoga, but I have been practicing for over 20 years. If there is one thing I am certain of, it’s this—if you start practicing yoga today and keep practicing, you will radically change your body, mind and most likely also your life. You don’t need to be able to perform challenging poses when you first start. In fact, it’s better for the inner work of the practice if you cannot easily do many of the poses. Students of yoga learn far more from the poses that feel impossible than from the poses that feel easy. I understand how intimidating it is to see masters of yoga poses effortlessly perform what seems like circus acts when something like a forward bend seems out of reach. As a student I have flopped, fallen, flailed, face-planted and failed in so many ways that I’ve lost count. There were so many times that I thought this yoga just wasn’t for me. I looked at my small body with short arms and thigh thighs and thought that if only my arms were longer or my butt smaller, yoga would be easier for me. I wished I’d started yoga at a younger age (I took my first class at 19!). I wondered if there was something wrong with me specifically. But, over years of practice, I found the way through the impossible to the possible. And I know you can too. My new book Get Your Yoga On is a place for you to find your path to this practice. Including modifications and different student models for every single pose, you will be able to see yourself in the practice. Pre-order today. Link is in my bio.」7月16日 0時47分
