ADVICE

Yoga Is About Life Expansion

  • Do treat yoga as taking charge of the source of your life rather than just physical postures.
  • Use practices that expand your life instead of creating self-imposed prisons of safety and stagnation.
INSIGHT

Spirituality As True Adventure

  • Spirituality is the greatest adventure because it means stepping into unknown territory.
  • Seeking implies moving toward states where you currently are not, not safety or comfort.
ADVICE

Don't Live To Unwind

  • Avoid outsourcing your intensity to relaxation rituals and question why you 'wind up' then 'unwind'.
  • If you want to explore human potential, use short, intense stretches of engagement rather than habitual rest.
