The Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga: A Practical Guide to Healing Body, Mind, and Spirit

(lu) #1

  1. Become aware of your unique talents and those
    things you love to do while expressing your unique tal-
    ents. In your practice of yoga, notice the postures
    that you enter into easily and use this information
    to become more intimate with your nature. Some
    people are naturally flexible, some have inherently
    good muscle strength, while others have innately
    good balance. Celebrate your natural talents even
    as you strive to develop other ones in yoga and in
    your life.

  2. Cultivate an inner conversation of helping and
    serving. When your intentions behind every action
    are to align with dharma, your actions will be effortless
    and successful. By asking the questions, How can I
    help? and How can I serve? you will fulfill your
    deeper purpose in life.

    Dharma is to remind you of the Law of Dharma, particu-
    larly when you are experiencing struggle and strife. Using
    the mantra will help shift your inner conversation from
    What’s in it for me? to How can I help?
