Intention in Yoga...

"When you want something very much, the whole universe conspires to help you." Paulo Coelho

In yoga, intention is everything. If you have the right intention, your choices will always guide you in the right direction. If you do not know why you are doing something, you are probably not going to be doing it for very long. I have a rock solid reason for changing my eating habits and that is what is still keeping my resolve alive.

Once you direct your attention to something, your intention becomes a powerful influence on what things happen in your life. Be clear about what your intentions are. Learn to notice all the little things that happen around you and that are trying to give you some clues and help you in fulfilling your desires. With time your mind will come down, you'll be able to release your intentions and surrender your desires.
