Start small and make it your own

Incorporating yoga on a daily basis has many positive effects on one's body and mind. Yet, with life's multiple demands, it can be a real challenge to find the time for this important practice. What I discovered over the last few years is that a short yoga practice is better then none. My level of energy, my geographical location, and the time that I have, dictate my yoga practice, not the other way around. 

​If you don't have a yoga practice, and wish to have one, start small! Take 5, 10, or 15 minutes every day for some gentle stretches and focused breathing. Soon, the felt benefits will motivate you to perhaps aim for a 30 minute practice and so on. Remember, it does not matter how long you stay on the mat or how much sweat you leave on it! As long as move with ease, breathe slowly, and listen to your body, you can't go wrong. If you need guidance or inspiration, here is a short video I recently did for you. Ideal for beginners, this yoga practice will hopefully help you feel a little bit more grounded and limber. Hope you enjoy it! Namaste.
