“Yoga practice should not conflict with our life but contribute to it. Whatever connects us to our essence is our practice. Whatever clears our head so we can see what is important is our practice. Once we get clear that we are practicing to live, not living to practice, we can bring the concept of formal practice into perspective. If our formal practice is utterly disassociated from our everyday lives, no amount of time on the mat will bring us peace of mind.”

–Donna Farhi, “Bringing Yoga to Life: The Everyday Practice of Enlightened Living”
