Yoga's potential for improving or transforming our lives arises from doing it consistently over the long span of our lives. Each time we step on the mat we have thean new opportunity to learn more about the subtleties and technical requirements of the practice, but also the subtleties and technicalities our ourselves.
A learning journey in which we discover more and more about ourselves along the path.
Just like learning a new language, the languages of yoga take time and patience to sink in as we gradually learn, breath by breath, how the various elements unite to create an integral experience.

One thing I learn with yoga is that when the heart ❤ speaks, we should pay attention and take notes

Sanskrit proverb

Magical moments are not measured by the composition of an experience but rather by our reaction to it. Since such moments come and go quickly, they should be consciously savored and noted. They stick with us only when we recognize the impact they have had on our mood, our day, and our lives. In such instances, we may find we are suddenly and blissfully aware that we have evolved or that those around us have changed in some positive way. We may stand in awe at the beauty of a familiar object or derive great pleasure from an everyday activity. Or we may witness incidents of supreme kindness and compassion that do not directly involve us yet touch our hearts intensely. Nature is a constant source of magical moments. When we cherish such occurrences, we condition ourselves to take note of them when they happen and appreciate the value they add to our lives.
