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

Yoga PRACTICE makes...

PRACTICE DEFINED: The act of rehearsing a behaviour over and over, or engaging in an activity again and again, for the purpose of improving or mastering it.
It's a yoga practice. When you come to yoga...you are practicing the yoga poses.
Once you know the RIGHT way to do the poses, you practice them when you come to class. So what happens when you have mastered the actual yoga poses? Then the real yoga comes into play.
Sure, you may have the physical poses down pat - but what about the stillness of your mind, and starting to meditate during the yoga poses?
Then, once you have mastered stillness of mind for the whole practice -then the next stage of yogi evolution begins.
Off the yoga mat, have you brought your new found peace and internal understanding into your everyday life and interactions?
Are you still REACTING to things insteaed of responding? Are you at peace with who you truly are and extend that peace to everyone and everything in your life and this world?
Yoga PRACTICE...
Body...Mastered?
Mind...Mastered?
Spirit...Mastered?
Not yet?
Keep practicing you hot yogster!
Peace
