Yoga
"Settle yourself in solitude, and you will come upon God in yourself."- St. Teresa of Avila
Yoga postures and breathing techniques encourage inner stillness, patience, self-acceptance, and a sense of humor, all of which benefit the mind and overall health.
Our bodies become stronger and more flexible, allowing the muscles to relax while our subtle energy channels are open and the spiritual energy flows freely. The wave-like motion of the breath stills the mind allowing Yoga to be both soothing and uplifting.

Inner Yoga from Steve Ross's book "Happy Yoga, 7 Reasons Why There's Nothing to Worry About"
"The yogis say that any truth seeker can retreat alone to a cave, deep in the jungle where he can't be found, but if he brings his whole family, enemies, and lovers with him in his mind, he will never find solitude. The challenge of other people constantly pulling your attention into chaotic situations can be distracting, but you can still allow your focus to remain on deepening yourself. Quiet is truly inside you."
INNER YOGA PRACTICE:
1. "The next time you feel pulled in five directions at once by your spouse or your children, take a moment-just one moment-to take a deep breath and a flash of silence before, or instead of reacting.
2. "Experiment with quiet when you're with other people. Are you comfortable enough to just be with other people, or do you feel that you must constantly be entertaining and engaged in conversation? Can you share a moment of quiet with your spouse or your children?"
