"When yoga is helpful for psychological issues, it seems to be because the practice of yoga interrupts patterns of both the body and mind. We’re challenged to experience our bodies in a different way – as strong, as powerful, as able to feel pleasure and ease – and to pay attention to what is actually happening in the moment, instead of letting our minds run off on typical patterns of self-criticism or worry."
