The funny thing about yoga is its subtle benefits somehow seep through the cracks, regardless of how base the nature of the practitioner. Explaining how this works is like holding rain in your hand. All I know is, I may go into class with my brain churning, itching to transfer my natural aggressiveness to the mat, but by the time we?ve reached inversions, that inclination has all but disappeared. In its place is, well, nothing?that much-touted sweet spot of being. And then there are the behavioral changes that take place over time. For instance, I don?t go on a rampage any more when I discover that a blanket has been folded improperly. I?ve stopped opening my eyes during pranayama to see who?s doing it "right" and who isn?t. And when someone unwittingly takes "my" space in the yoga studio I no longer pout about it for the entire class. Because, in the end, there?s nothing like the feeling after class, when my brain is wiped clean and I can feel my cells dancing. I drift home oblivious to the petty ego diversions I came in with. I try to imagine the incredible lightness of yoga reverberating throughout my life, making me a better person, despite myself. From Illusions of the Perfect Pose, by Martha Fenton
