"As I practice yoga, I practice living by meeting myself over and over again. Yoga is a gift from the very first beginning, it reawakens our vision of our inner light that never will burn out. The more we practice yoga the stronger the light will shine. Yoga helps us to slow down and creates space for growth within to blossom.”
