The Yoga Mind: You are What You Think!


Many people know the saying, "you are what you eat." Yoga psychology advocates that "you are what you think." When we celebrate the negeative aspects of our lives, it continues a state of negativity. In this way, we produce our own negative states or hell here on earth. Yoga teaches us to be mindful of every moment and to celebrate the positive!

Here is a related quote from the book About Peace by Scott Shaw:
"If your mind is troubled,
preoccupied with unhappy thoughts about:
your job,
your relationships,
the money you owe,
your unfulfilled desires,

you will not be able to concentrate on the positive elemts of life.

Thus, you will be kept from peace--bound to a world of unhappiness.

Start Right Now--begin redefining your life in a new, more positive fashion.
