See the world as yourself.  Have faith in the way things are.  Love the world as yourself, then you can care for all beings.

Lao Tzu

[yogawithdiana]

To be kind is more important than to be right.  Many times what people need is not a brilliant mind that speaks but a special heart that listens.

Take it seriously but not too seriously.

The basis for true change is freedom from negativity.  And that's what acceptance implies; no negativity about what is.  And then you can see what this moment requires.  What is it that is required now so that life can express itself more fully.

By letting it go it all gets done.  The world is won by those who let it go.  But when you try and try the world is then beyond the winning.

Tao Te Ching

[yogawithdiana]

The first step of a yoga practice is to consciously link breathe and body.  Allowing every movement to be lead by the breathe as we practice the asanas.  

As simple as raising arms on an inhale and lowering them on an exhale helps find the rhythm of combined breathe and movement.

The quality of our breathe is extremely important because it expresses our inner feelings

Yoga sutra 1.33

Maitri kuruna mudhita upekshanan Be kind, be compassionate, rejoice and move on

[yogawithdiana]

Be dedicated to youself in a way that benefits others.

Yogi/Yogini

A yogi/yogini has not seen somethings others can never see, rather he/she sees what others do not yet see.

Purpose of yoga

The ultimate of yoga is to always observe things accurately, and therefore never act in a way that will make us regret our actions later.
