In her newest work 'On Muscle', Bonnie Tsui explores the significance of muscles and their role in shaping perception. Through personal experiences and insights gained from adaptive yoga teacher Matthew Sanford, who demonstrates yoga's inclusivity from a wheelchair, Tsui illustrates the profound connection between body, mind, and breath inherent in yoga practice. Sanford emphasizes the importance of recognizing all parts of the body and how yoga can aid in overcoming physical challenges, promoting a deeper awareness and connection to oneself, irrespective of physical limitations.
