Yoga at OHM Schedule w/ Victor 3/6-3/12/2023: It's Yoga Practice, Not Yoga Perfect

It's Yoga Practice, Not Yoga Perfect
The importance of treating yoga as an ongoing journey vs. an achievement

“Do your practice and all is coming.”–  Pattabhi Jois

(This week's newsletter was composed by our wonderful on-demand teacher and full time writer Elinor Cohen. Check out her Instagram HERE and her amazingly empowering advanced & intermediate sessions on our on-demand archives.)

Have you ever stopped to think about the words we use to describe yoga? Unlike a traditional workout in which you might discuss a “routine” or a “program,” yoga uses the term “practice” to describe the poses, the breathwork, and the actions yogis go through every time they step on their mat. The practice also refers to the work done off the mat, or the real yoga as some like to call it.

Thinking about the yoga practice as just that – a practice– can be freeing. Instead of something that needs to be “gotten,” achieved, or perfected, the essence of yoga is in the practice itself.

Despite the fact that many of us strive for it, we all know that perfection isn’t realistic or even possible. The beauty of having a yoga practice is that perfection is never the goal. With that, you can release a sigh of relief! Eliminating the perfection aspect from yoga means that there’s no pressure to “nail it” or "get it just right.”

Not to be the bearer of bad news, but the truth about yoga is that you’re never going to "get" it. This is because yoga isn't something that can ever be fully figured out. The practice of yoga is in accepting that it is an ongoing journey, with twists, turns, exceptions, and pearls of wisdom peppered in along the way.

Yoga doesn't want you to have it all figured out. It wants you to trust that it has what you need at any given time. Yoga is fluid, just like we are as human beings. We are ever-changing and malleable. We will never 100% figure ourselves out. The moment we think we do, life throws us a curveball to test us. Some call it a “gotcha” moment while others simply see it as the Universe humbling us. Yoga is like that, too. The practice is an opportunity for constant learning and growth. There's never an end to the practice of yoga, and that is what makes it so accessible to everyone. The infiniteness of yoga is freedom.
