Living Life With Yoga and What It Means To Me

one click 8 | Living life to the fullest, that is what everyone strives for. To live a better more fulfilling peaceful healthy content lifestyle, is all we work so hard and stress ourselves over to achieve. Most would think just eating better, working harder, remembering to go to the gym once in a while would do the trick but many are in the dark when it comes to true well-being. You hear it all the time on Dr. Oz, news health reports and commercials of ladies posing in saunas looking happy and healthy. There is no doubt it is everywhere nowadays; it is coming more to life how yoga has much more benefits than ever before. Whether it is to lose weight, reduce stress, lead a more peaceful balanced approach to life, you ask what it all means to me. To me more than anything I have found my bridge.

My gateway away from the darkness of all the tar and negativity that the world can fully drown you in if you allow it to. Crossing away from the darkness and into a glistening beautiful light where I found not only a foundation to a new fulfilling lifestyle but most of all one that is true to my nature. In my heart and in my life all I am grateful for in life are my blessings. Having a family and maintaining a healthy lifestyle in a busy hectic environment while keeping a light heart and even humor requires a great deal of patience to me. A great deal of focus with lots of discipline are just a few main focal points in yoga to me. There is many levels to appreciate and grow from as a person.

While attending all of my yoga classes this year, I have found great changes unfolding within myself at many levels. I have not only lost all of those stubborn post baby pounds I couldn't shake off, I have found that as my practice that became more disciplined and more intense, my nature outlook and even my disposition were all altered into that brighter side of me that still seem to sometimes shadow the old reflection that is me, that I so wanted to shed. I became more than ever more self-aware of myself if I lost focus or didn't maintain a solid practice or routing I quickly spotted myself going back to that place I so wanted to forget. Reflecting on what I used to be and what I strive to be became my drive. I noticed it not only made me a better person it made me a happier better mother to my children and a more pleasant and loving wife. I no longer stress the small stuff, I grown more patient and also realize what I put in my body, my temple reflecting more than I ever realized. Everyone around me started to notice a difference, I smile more, learned to let it go and looked what to improve rather what to regret which got me to where I am now. If there is one thing that I feel strongly of is meditating is key, just taking time out of the hustle and bustle and taking time out was key to being and becoming the best me. With breathing exercises and mediation will open you in ways you never noticed within yourself before. Now I can truly say I'm content and much more happier on the other side thanks to my wonderful teachers and over all lifestyle change, I now have one more beautiful blessing to be oh so grateful for. That is yoga to me, all its benefits that it's instilled in me will stay with me for the rest of my life, and i need to pass it on.

What gives me the most satisfaction is to be able to take what i have learned, this light and pass it down to all who might still be in the dark. I want to lead them to this glorious light which creates hope to start improving the next person's life which might need a guiding light and a helping hand to cross that bridge, to a true happier healthier and more content lifestyle.
