Words of Wisdom

"The primary aim of yoga is to restore the mind to simplicity and peace and free it from confusion and distress. This sense of calm comes from the practice of yogic asana and pranayama. Unlike other forms of exercise, which can strain muscles and bones, yoga gently rejuvenates the body. By restoring the body, yoga frees the mind from negative feelings caused by the fast pace of modern life. The practice of yoga fills up the reservoirs of hope and optimism within you. It helps you overcome all obstacles on the path to perfect health and spiritual contentment. It is a rebirth."


~ B.K.S Iyengar
