Opening the hips

Yoga allows you to arrive on your mat exactly where you are in that moment. Not where you were yesterday or where you want to be, but with an acceptance of right here and right now. That is kind of what yoga is…creating a space for the moment to arise within you and be noticed.
Yoga teaches us that competition, with ourselves and with others,often has the opposite effect to that which we are striving for. As with trying to hard we are not able to let go. It is often the letting go of expectation and of trying into the acceptance of just being that allows us to really move forward in our yoga.
