“Yoga can teach you to listen to your deepest self, but you’ll have to be willing to listen. I am immensely grateful for compassionate teachers, classical texts and supportive friends + family. With the help of this network of true knowledge, I believe my best self has a chance to shine bright if I just give it a chance. Not one chance, but an eternal chance. Evolution, change and failure are all guaranteed in life, yoga is not. Yoga is hard work and it’s a lifetime work; you have to want to be the light which at times means recognizing, dealing with and confronting the darkness.”
