Above all treasure love, moderation and humility. Love begets courage, moderation creates abundance and humility generates power. Courage without love is brutish. Abundance without moderation leads to over-indulgence and decay. Power without humility breeds arrogance and tyranny.
—B.K.S. Iyengar
I bought this book during the weekend and just a few pages from the book got me really… really inspired.
The words used were very humble and teaches the very soul of yoga. Somehow, after reading the book , i’ve known a little more about yoga and i find the title of the book very apt. It’s like an awakening or.. a new knowledge shining /enlightening me. This will surely affect my practices as i now know what to focus on during my pranayamas and asanas. 🙂 it also gives me a new light on being a vegan and the true meaning behind it. 🙂

Also, much thanks to furkids 😀 who twittered the name of the pose i was looking for.

When you shop for yoga clothes, remember that it doesn’t matter how durable, comfortable, or great-looking they are, if they’re not all three, you’ll notice. At SFORZA, We use only the most breathable, durable materials and employ interlock weaving technology for a smooth, tailored look. So in the gym, in your home or in a posture you’ve never done before, the last thing on your mind will be your clothes.
