Here’s something not everyone will tell you, but that is true—yoga is hard work. It’s not meant to be easy, especially not at first. Well, not exactly. There’s a balance between the amazing feeling in your body and the work that you put in on your mat. It’s not that everything should feel good or easy when you practice. The feel-good feeling is often only accessible after practice, when you’re lying on your mat, thoroughly worked and sweaty, where you feel a basic sense of goodness and wholeness. That post-yoga happiness that is the result of your hard work in the practice.

Some people get discouraged because the poses are difficult without understanding that it never matters whether or not you succeed. What matters is the change in your heart and soul when you practice.

Yoga is not only physically, but emotionally and spiritually confronting. In other words, yoga brings up stuff. This process is the purification of mind, body and soul that defines what yoga truly is. Called Tapas in Sanskrit, it is the discipline, effort and difficulty that make the sweet feeling of joy and peace so deeply held in your heart after practice. There are so many ways we can each work. This is not an invitation or excuse to harm or force your body. It is an encouragement to welcome those moments of difficulty with the full faith that you are on the right path.

I’m in India now, studying yoga, and I’m in the full fire of Tapas. I get up in what is quite literally the middle of the night so I can be ready for practice at 3:30 am. My practice is longer and more intense than what I do at home. It’s hotter, sweatier, deeper and I am more sore and tired than at home. I’m not complaining. It’s the Tapas that I willingly submit to. I surrender my all into the fire, knowing that I’ll leave with just a bit more inner light, a few drops more inner peace.
