Yoga makes me flexible. Bendy. Gumby. I never thought I'd be able to fall into a full split at any time of the day, get my leg behind my head, or wear my feet as a hat. Through constant practice, I did, and I can.
It wasn't just physical practice; it was retraining my mind to believe that I could relax my body into this shape, or engage my muscles to create that one. You have to see it, believe it, then you be it.
That's the real gift. Understanding that yoga can make you flexible in the body and the mind is great. Knowing how to set a goal, work toward it, and achieve it or not, that's world-changing.
