Yogic Challenge

I encourage all you current and future students to really try and be the postures rather than do the posture. What I mean is when you hear your teacher instruct you to be in downward facing dog or tree or fish or child or bridge or warrior, instead of solely focusing on where your feet or you gaze or you navel should be, go beyond your limbs and challenge your mind to embrace these poses and their identities. Feel the innocence and soathing comfort of being a child at rest in child's pose, feel the strength and courage in warrior, feel the unjudgemental peace of a tree that knows not of want or monitary value but is humbled to just feel the rays of the sun. I challenge you to go forth and deepen your yogic understanding in practice.
