Throughout my life, I bounced from place to place, job to job, interest to interest, searching for my purpose. I was always envious of people who seemed to have it all figured out, who knew what they wanted to do and excelled in their passions.
After starting yet another new career, a co-worker invited me to a Yoga class after work one day. Yoga? Isn’t that just stretching? Sure, I’ll try that. Five minutes into that first class, I realized yoga is so much more than just a workout.
I immediately felt at peace and a desire to become a better person. I remember lying in savasana at the end of the class, exhausted and drenched in sweat, with tears rolling down my cheeks. The physical and spiritual release that my heart, mind and body had experienced had brought me to tears.
The mental, spiritual and physical difference that yoga has made in my life is profound.
