'Yoga is the practice of calming the constant wave of the mind.' The verse is found in Chapter 1:2 of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, a book containing yoga teachings. While practicing yoga, we close our eyes and breathe deeply and slowly in and out in repetition. This is a simple, silent practice of concentrating on one's inner movements. The inner power of reaching complete unity with the universe lies behind the body's movement to perform yoga. The ability to listen to my inner voice through breathing and moving, the ability to come to terms with who I truly am through a complete understanding of myself, and the ability to accept myself as I am, are all fundamental aspects of yoga.
