“You must purge yourself before finding faults in others.
When you see a mistake in somebody else, try to find if you are making the same mistake.
This is the way to take judgment and to turn it into improvement.
Do not look at others' bodies with envy or with superiority.
All people are born with different constitutions.
Never compare with others.
Each one's capacities are a function of his or her internal strength.
Know your capacities and continually improve upon them.” 
― B.K.S. Iyengar, Light on Life
Happy Wednesday beautiful hearts!  These words by Iyengar resonate such significant truths.  When we step onto our mats, we symbolically step into a greater and kinder awareness of life.  We are offered a chance to practice compassion towards our selves and others.  The practice of Yoga invites us to join to the heart center of the whole.  When we feel this pulse coming alive in our breath, we transcend the habitual patterns of the thinking mind and come to a space of alignment with all beings.  

I love this quote on so many levels, but one of my most favorite nuggets is "know your capacities and continually improve upon them."  There is no mention of growing stagnate or reaching some final destination, but rather a continual refinement of possibilities in our lives.  The magic is in the process.  May we live into the spaces of our lives.  Cultivating a deeper sense of devotion to our specific path.  Even if you are not yet a yogi practicing on your mat, I guarantee that you can be a Yogi in your life:).  Our work is to carry this container of kindness with us wherever we go.    

May You Sweetly Seek:)
In Gratitude, 
​Sarah
