Yoga Instruction - Self Awareness Focus

I have to admit, one of the major benefits of yoga I've personally
experienced, and heard from many others that they found most
rewarding is an increased sense of self-awareness.

Often we hear that the major benefits of yoga are flexibility,
muscle toning, balance - for me it is absolutely a much keener ability
to live "in the moment" - being able to step back and actually
view objectively what I am feeling at any given time.

I'm not perfect, neither yoga nor meditation require that you be
perfect, sometimes it takes a while to figure that out as this
growth in self awareness is a constant, gradual process - but when
you get so far, it will hit you - yoga has opened up a whole new
world within your life.

If you seek yoga instruction, then be sure that you look for classes,
books or videos that emphasize the self-awareness aspects of yoga.
It really is the life changing aspect that will stay with you forever.

Now, if you find that yoga instruction is just not working for you, that
you seem to be lacking real results and feelings of accomplishment
or satisfaction, then consider spending the next month learning
about the self-awareness aspect of yoga defined 1000's of years
ago.
