Through yoga, we develop our skills at letting go–of attachment to thoughts, emotions, circumstances, stories about events and our lives…
We let go of that which thwarts our deepening union with the Self, the universal.
We let go of that which keeps us in the dark, of that which dims or hinders the light.
The practices are what we do, the doing, that develop and sustain this ongoing and ever deepening relationship with the Self.
The practices are what we do so yoga can happen!
*Yoga means literally “to yoke” or unite or bind the individual’s consciousness, the self, with divine or universal consciousness, the Self.
