in imagelarugayoga I will tell you, after years of doing Bhekāsana, I never feel like I get the chest high enough, hahaha.

But with that said, is it wrong to strive for it? Why not? As I reach for growth in any pursuit, I might miss, and I might fail, but at least I strive for something beyond what I am capable of in this moment. It's not for everybody, and that's okay. As long as there is grace and acceptance for where I am now, I can still reach for the stars. ✨ ✨ ✨

Ashtanga Yoga is a system of yoga.
A system is a dynamic network of components that interact to produce specific outcomes. It includes:
1. Elements: The individual parts that make up the system.
2. Interconnections: The relationships and interactions between the elements.
3. Function or Purpose: The goal the system aims to achieve.
Systems exhibit lifelike qualities, even if they consist of nonliving elements. These characteristics include:
• Self-Organization: Systems can arrange themselves into orderly patterns without external direction.
• Self-Repair: Systems can mend themselves when disrupted within certain limits.
• Resilience: Systems can withstand shocks and continue functioning.
• Evolution: Systems can give rise to entirely new systems through innovation and adaptation.

essays that explore the rise,
The modern yoga industry has shifted away from teaching a practice that once ecnouraged and even required ongoing learning, self-reflection, and personal growth. Instead, the commercial interests have been prioritized over genuine education. This shift has left both students and teachers navigating a system that often exploits their desire to learn and grow. Nowhere is this tension more evident than in the yoga teacher training system, which, while serving as a lifeline for the industry, has become deeply flawed.
