bound by time

binding in yoga, is a term that yoga teachers use in teaching their students to help advance their asanas...........it is generally indicative of a mind and body that is ready to expand the "edge" a little further and create a new "edge"......the posture is deepened, the hands go around the posture and meet each other in a"binding" pose........even though we are bound, the breath helps us in surrendering and being with the moment, in our asana.

in life, off the yoga mat, being "bound" has so many meanings, generally it reflects a commitment and loss of freedom, sometimes being pulled in many directions.

it is possible, or is it? to carry the practice from the yoga mat to our day to day life.............
surrendering and being one with the moment.............
