When we build focused energy, or tapas, in our yoga postures, we focus on our breath and on our alignment to become completely present and “absorbed” in the posture. We can transfer that concept of focus and mindfulness into our day-to-day lives, becoming more present with the here and now, and letting go of events in the past and concerns for the future.
Check with your doctor before performing any form of exercise including yoga. Always honor your body. If a posture gives you pain, gently come out.
Namaste,
