Good Sunday morning lovers of love, seekers of happiness! Every now and then we need a hearty dose of inspiration. Known to some and felt by others, as a kick in the buttasana!

“To keep the body in good health is a duty, otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.” – Buddha When you don’t have enough time in the morning for your yoga practice or daily fitness routine, but still want to prepare your mind and body for the day, I [...]
