And then there are those moments we remember the sweetness. Thanks to this 9-year-old Yogi Beans student for today’s lovely reminder that we can all stop time and find calm.
How does Proud Warrior (aka Warrior II) make you feel?
“This pose makes me feel like I can stop time and focus on one thing which means calm. This makes me feel calm because it reminds me of yoga and I can always focus on yoga.” – Bean, Age 9
