My mother was the first person to teach me yoga. As a young boy I suffered from very bad anxiety. The first thing she taught me was Corpse pose and how to use my breathing to help relax my body and clam my mind. Over the years yoga has helped me to over come anxiety, physical injuries and has helped me develop a greater sense of self-awareness, self acceptance, and self-love.
