Yoga is a darśana - a mirror that helps you see

Yoga is a mirror that helps you to see something about yourself. A skilled yoga teacher is a link between the teachings of yoga and the practitioner, making the teachings accessible to the seeker through conversation, practices and lived experience. A teacher may show you, with kindness and care, something that is difficult to see for yourself. Though the work ais your own, this helping relationship has the potential to show you where you are to help you to arrive at a place that you could not have found on your own.
