"As Sri Pattabhi Jois, founder of Ashtanga yoga, said: 'Yoga is 99% practice and 1% theory.'
Doctors should really be prescribing practice to patients: practice healthy eating habits, practice exercise, practice good relationships, practice discipline, practice creativity, practice confidence, practice learning, practice working hard. Because everything takes practice. Health, contentment, love, good relationships, success...these don't come easily to anyone."
This is from the blog Prescribing Yoga by Christina Palmer. It was chosen for recognition by one of my new favorite online magazines...The Magazine of Yoga...this morning. It's so nice to be reminded that everyone needs to practice. Whatever appears easy and effortless is always the result of practice. We're all in this life together, practicing.
