Self-awareness Yoga
focuses on how your body
works and how each
movement is an
expression of the
interrelation of your
physical being and mind.
In this respect, yoga is
about creating a strong
mind-body connection.
The deeper
understanding of your
inner self that springs
from this creates greater
self-awareness.
Confidence The
wonderful flexibilityinducing stretching that
yoga practice involves
makes your whole body
feel longer and leaner.
You will walk tall and not
just because you feel
limber but also because
yoga supports a sense of
inner acceptance that can
really boost confidence
levels. Its difficult to

good feelings. And of

physical results you see

benefit that comes from
repetition of movements
in yoga. By applying
yourself and seeing how
you can progress
systematically, you can
really appreciate the
value of effort and
discipline.
