7. But at the end of the day, it doesn't matter if you have three out of four of your limbs; it doesn't matter if you're fat, short, tall, male, female, or somewhere in between. None of that matters. All that matters is that we're human and trying to breathe together. -Jessamyn Stanley  

 

8. Yoga is here for us to cultivate power and transcend our limitations, personally and socially. -Susanna Barkataki

When I take time to appreciate the breath, I make space for an appreciation of life.  -Chelsea Jackson Roberts
