Yoga Is

Yoga is a drinking in of life. Yoga is gratitude. Yoga is peace. It is a prayer. Yoga is a lifting of ones soul to its creator. Yoga is at at-one-ment with God and oneself. Yoga is faith. It is hope. It is charity. Yoga, to the fullest extent, is a realization of divine potential. It is becoming one with God because one becomes like God.

This morning I took a few minutes before work to step into nature, down by the river and find some peace to fortify me through the day. I found it. I found it in God. Because that is what stepping into nature really is for me - it's a stepping into and up to God. It's taking His hand and feeling His embrace and being reminded of what really matters. It's a prayer. 

And while I prayed this morning I did yoga. Real yoga. I breathed and paused and opened my soul to hear His voice. And then I drank the nature in with a simple movement of the arms above the head and then bringing the energy back into my heart with my hands. So simple. So real. So powerful. 

God is in everything good. God is everything good.
