      Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; for it becomes your destiny. -- Upanishads

      Trying too hard?

      Trying too hard?

      Do you try too hard? Are you agressive? Are you hard on yourself? Do you push and push your yoga pose so much that it loses the intention for sweet balance?

      Signs that you try too hard -

      - After a yoga pose you are frustrated.
      - You have pulled something, sprained something, or twisted something in yoga class.
      - You scream after a yoga pose is done.
      - In your yoga pose - you can't smile even if someone gave you a million bucks.
      - You feel angry that you can't contort your body into a pretzel.

      Maybe it's time to soften your practice.

      Breathe and smile.
