Thrive Hot Yoga Farmington Hills

My yoga journey began almost 10 years back at a Bikram studio primarily to help heal from injuries related to a car accident. But in the process it altered my ego and took me through this amazing inward journey within myself. I started recognizing what I am, who I am, what means the most to me. Eventually I realized I have control on my own emotions and on my actions. This practice of breath and movement took me to whole another level of spirituality. I realized with my breath I can just hang in there for a while and find contentment, Santhosha. This space on my mat allows me to find myself and connect me to my very core. I appreciated things more than I did. Accepting where we are, what we have been through, what we have in life now and letting go of the past really helped me keep my inner peace. Yoga has made me realize to live life to the fullest not in fear, not sinking in our negative thoughts, but live, learn and love. Always!To teach what I have learned from my own practice is what inspired me to pursue teacher training last year. It gives me a platform to connect with students, share experiences, learn from each other, and grow. Through proper guidance of breath and movement, I would like my students to find that space for themselves on their mats to explore the endless possibilities through mind body connection and leave their mats feeling totally transformed with their minds at ease, their hearts with contentment and peace. It is through this inner peace, we can all live in harmony and spread love, kindness wherever we go!
