Time flies, when your having fun, but does aging sometimes make you feel sad or slightly depressed? yoga classes have given students a new appreciation of life. The realization that the clock is ticking; appears to be a path of physical and mental limitations for some of us. As we age, will we be less mobile, less wise, or a bit slow on our feet.

Lets discuss why; as you continue to practice Yoga, you will age gracefully and happily. How many times has your yoga teacher told you to be present for practice or to live in the moment? yoga teaches us to live right now as if it was our last day on earth.

Since we are living at the moment, we must give our lives purpose, meaning, and not be afraid to take a chance. Never look back with regret on the life, spouse, or job you could have had - if you only took a chance.

What is the worst that can happen? Nothing will be different than it was the day before. In the words of Alfred Lord Tennyson: I hold it true, whate'er befall; I feel it, when I sorrow most; 'Tis better to have loved and lost, Than never to have loved at all.

This brings to mind, wisdom, which comes with age. If we had only known what we know right now, things would be different. Well, there is no time like the present, so get all your knowledge together and take action this second.

Who cares how long you have been on this earth? There are no medals given for lack of action. Jesus once said, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. The miracle at the pool of Bethesda required action.
