"Yoga practice, especially Ashtanga yoga practice, is anything but easy. We all have met or will most likely meet failure right in our first class. Not only was I not very good at the asanas, but I also was not good at failing or falling out of the asanas. Frustration and failure have a nasty habit of sneaking into your mindset, and they have the potential to really ruin your practice if you let them."
"I wasn't athletic or particularly physically fit, and I certainly had no idea what a lineage-based yoga practice was. But I kept practicing because of how I felt when I got off the mat. I also learned that just because you cannot balance in a pose does not mean you are not worthy of practicing yoga."
