| Introduction | My senior year of college, I tried the 'two weeks for $25' deal at the only studio in proximity to my gym after passing the sign for weeks – some full body stretching to accompany my stringent workout routine. Before this, I had taken a yoga class offered at our gym and strongly disliked it – it lacked both heart and soul. I'm distressed by the abundance of cookie cutter studios that offer a shadow of yoga; these teachers and studios have turned many peers in serious need of yoga away from the experience. I was lucky. I stumbled into a studio of compassionate and dedicated yogis whose teachings resonated far beyond my physical body. I began practicing regularly for the physical benefits and peace of mind, and unknowingly entered a loving journey of healing and transformation. |
