Practicing yoga is, above all, a deliberate act of self-love. I am showing gratitude for everything my body allows me to experience, like the simple pleasure of expressive movement. It helps me to check in with myself and foster a lasting relationship with my body and mind. The world is often telling me not to love myself so that I can be sold something for a profit. Being kind and forgiving towards myself and my body is the ultimate act of social rebellion. I am eternally grateful for how my practice has encouraged me to be gentler with myself and others.
