the yogi is like a lamp that stays lit even when a strong wind blows... yoga is a harmonious co-ordination of asanas and pranayamas the breathing and the postures the inhalation and the exhalation calming the mind and the nerves uplifting the human spirit deliverance from sorrow, pain liberation from earthly desires disciplining intellect and emotion perfect equilibrium of mind, soul, body a communion of man's will with the will of god the ultimate spiritual bonding with the One. #vers libre
This is so beautiful and true Yassy!!!! Great minds… your twin reconnected with yoga again – 4 days of consistent routines for me. Today, I started with sun salutations. Made a huge huge difference.
I had not done it in months, and getting back I realized how much I’ve missed it.
Beautiful verse – your words flow like yoga. That beautiful breath – fluid as water. ❤️🙏🏻 Namaste – beautiful one!
