Yoga is one method of bringing about these kinds of dynamic changes. Sometimes, it takes three or more tries before you find the teacher you relate to, and who relates to you, as the unique individual you are.
In the Yoga Sutras, a historic text on yoga, the very first aphorism is atha yoganuasanam. Roughly translated, it means “and we begin again.” This aphorism is strategically placed as the first of 196 aphorisms as a reminder that yoga is a practice for the sake of practice. Each time we step onto the mat, there is an opportunity to let go of our desire to strike the perfect pose; instead, the opportunity available is to embrace the moment for the first time. And to use the breath as a sutra or thread to string together each moment, one breath at a time.
