Yoga in Practice

Seeking Balance

We all get into habits, good and bad ones, like a dog that runs back and forth alongside a fence creating a groove. In Sanskrit, these patterns are called samaskaras, and they become more entrenched the longer we continue them. To cultivate better habits we have to bring awareness to what is no longer serving us and then decide to make a change. Slowing down and being aware is a place to begin.
