Yoga is an easy technology of the strength of life receiving the nurturing force of life. When applied correctly without struggle or obsession yoga produces clarity, more peace and more power, the natural form of life.

Yoga is nature's way of restoring the system once the mind has given up the struggle. We merely cooperate with the movement of energy. How do you cooperate with the movement of energy?

We suffer because we try to be something we are not. However, the fact is that we have been conditioned by the social mind, which is telling us that we are separate from Nature. There is this feeling of separation; it is painful & abusive to the living organism. Yoga of Heart

The notion of having to do anything to improve ourselves, to get to some better state, is itself the problem that prevents us from enjoying the profundity of the flesh, the livingness of the life current, that is our very condition and birthright.

Yoga is already established in us as life, so it is easy for any person to practice and realize what yoga offers. Yoga does not propose anything except that which may be tangibly experienced. By linking to what can be experienced, life is experienced. Yoga of Heart

Yoga is a like (or is) a seed. Prepare for it, plant it, nurture it, and it gives the most wonderful fruit. Tend your yoga garden, and allow all things to flourish.

Take time to notice and appreciate the pause between the inhale and exhale (and exhale and inhale). Become aware of being suspended in stillness before the movement begins again.

Yoga is the movement of the life current...into its inherent relationships, the body, the breath and perceptions, our experience. To merge, to be with our experience rather than react to our experience, is yoga.
