I found myself asking ‘WTF is mindfulness?’ in my head during yoga classes. ‘WTF is presence?’ I’d think when I heard a yogi explain what they liked about yoga. I could not even wrap my head around these little concepts that have integrated themselves so seamlessly into my life.

I feel these concepts are the barrier to entry when it comes to yoga or meditation for lots of people. In these practices we totally take on a new form of thought, a new way of being, or so it seems from the outside, and it’s an intimidating world to enter.
