"As someone who's always been active and into fitness, the physical side of yoga is fun and feels natural. But, as I regularly remind you, yoga is so much more than just the physical asana. The asana is actually pretty unimportant in the wider picture of yoga. And for me, it's those other aspects where I am definitely still learning. Meditation, Patanjali's 7th limb of yoga, is new to me. Like all things that are a challenge, it's easy to put it off, find something else to do instead, come up with reasons why it's not really necessary. But I'm getting some help now with Leaf to remind me to put aside just 10 minutes a day to meditate. 10 minutes! That's all. We can easily spend twice that time scrolling through social media. Leaf reminds me to stop and take just that moment to sit and turn my mind off. Meditation is like anything -- it takes practice. And I know if I want to gain all the glorious benefits of Dhyana, I have to practice regularly." ? ?: @dragonyoga Find time for the things that matter, find time to take care of yourself and your health. ✨
