What do you want?

Create your own meaningful affirmation. If you repeat your chosen affirmation regularly, does it have any effect on your attitude, perspective, and motivation? https://simple-yoga.org This content is inspired by the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali according to the book Unravel the Thread by Ruben Vasquez. #yoga #simpleyoga #yogasimple #unravelthethread #yogasutra #patanjali #patanjaliyogasutra #presence

Feeling Practice
