“So, as we practice our poses, let us practice not force but feeling, not violence but awareness, not intolerance but compassion. Let us move from fighting to feeling. From looking out to looking in. From goal to path. From winning to growing. From the ways of aggression to the ways of yoga." -Aadil Palkhivala.

We are served well on the mat by allowing this sentiment to drive the tempo of our practice. Some days we hop to the top of the mat, other days it's a slow crawl. Still others, it's a collapse into child's pose (and maybe even falling asleep there). The point is, your practice is meant to adapt, align with your life, and serve you in this moment.
