Alanna Kaivalya responds to the Equinox vid
“Yoga challenges us to see what’s right about our bodies rather than what is wrong. It asks us to be happy with what is, rather than what needs to be changed. Yoga instills acceptance… in our large thighs, cellulite, wrinkles and tight hamstrings, rather than the overwhelming and all-consuming desire to try and fit ourselves into some box that just isn’t, well, just isn’t us. When we’re happy with who we are, our ideals shift back into a mode of acceptance and appreciation, rather than a state of anticipation and inadequacy.” Alanna Kaivalya
