Yoga, at its core, is a philosophy and a psychology. By filtering my life through the lens of yoga, it keeps me honest and holds me accountable. Through yoga, I seek to understand my inner being as a member of this interconnected cosmos. My aim is nothing less than my own emergent evolution along the lines of universal directionality. Day to day though, my yoga studies help to create a steady framework in which to orient myself in shifting times and serve as a backdrop for my work with others.
