    Yoga + Self Care

    (This page contains Affiliate Link. For more information see my disclosures, here) The reasons why I came to yoga are so simple now that I think back to my very 1st day on the mat. I knew deep down there was something missing, didnt have a clue of what exactly but one thing was for sure each and every time I came off that mat I felt closer to whatever “it” was.
