In 2006, while living in New York City, I was part of a dynamic community of Yogis. We practiced every morning for 90 minutes. Our practice consisted of mantra, pranayama, asana (the physical postures), philosophy, meditation and deep relaxation.
Often, we’d meet in the evenings and discuss our practices while sharing a nutritious meal. On weekends, we attended workshops and trainings through which we deepened our knowledge and strength. We didn’t always open up about the most personal challenges we were going through, but we had one thing in common: We were transforming our minds, bodies, health and lives. While meeting consistently, we deeply bonded in this experience.
Community gives us momentum…
