Practice yoga and happiness

Yoga is a practice because it is not something that we learn and perfect. There is no finish line. Yoga is a lifelong practice. We build flexibility, balance, focus, alignment and both physical and mental strength. Every time we show up for ourselves on our mat we continue our practice and maintain what we have learned and developed. 

Happiness is also a practice. Happiness is not something that you achieve or just occurs in moments when everything is going well. Happiness is also something that we build and learn to create from within. In yoga we practice postures, flow and breathwork. To build happiness we can practice gratitude, mindfulness, self-compassion, developing our strengths and use them to take meaningful action in our lives.

We can also bring happiness intentions into our yoga practice. What we practice on the mat with we carry with us into our lives.
