Your spirit plays a large role in Yoga. You must learn through practice what you are ”made of“ which will grow your confidence the more you approach it. But what is the spirit? This is a complex question with many perspectives and you can answer it for yourself in your own way because you’re right. In the next few sentences may be a way to look at whats called the “spirit”… Everything around us is in this connective energy ocean, that surrounds us all the time, this space between us is filled with energy that vibrate seemingly forever. So as you move through your physical yoga practice and this energy ocean you feel all that you are inside and out, from bone to muscle to the feeling of air on your skin. You can test your.connection to this abundance of energy through engaging in concentration on your physical posture and the comfort you make in it a pose. A couple ways to raise your spirit through a yoga practice. Practice posture in connection with your breath (energy) and notice your focus. In other words, mind your body and you’ll mind your breathing patterns, which will focus your mind. Confidence arises from this connection between your (mind body and spirit) there is no separation. Those around you will notice this as you continue to practice Yoga. Remain humble as you grow and love with kindness those that may observe your change. Enjoy your practice.
