Do you want to practice yoga?

If you are a beginner, it is important to consider that much more important to pay attention to how the mind, breath, and energy level you react to pose / position that you do. The reaction will eventually awaken to who you are, your strengths and weaknesses as a human being, and what you can do to make the situation better.

Even if you already have a yoga teacher, but the teacher is only one source of knowledge, but they will not necessarily know all things. Yoga is a sport or movement that is very individual, and then the response will be different for each person.

Teachers can only tell you about what is a good effect for him but not necessarily for you. There are many lessons that you have to find out yourself. So you have to learn to trust your intuition and pay attention to cues of body, mind, and spirit.
