Perfection is enchanting—but it promises an end destination that doesn’t exist. Yoga, if you listen carefully, asks us to turn inward, embracing tapas - disciplined effort - not as a demand for perfection but as a gentle guide through life's ups and downs.  Let’s be humbled by the reminder that yoga is not a performance after all. It’s a daily ritual that meets us exactly where we are. It’s a letting go of comparisons, whether to others or our past selves. And through the heat of disciplined practice, we burn away our inner obstacles, confront our inertia, and find solace in the simple act of standing on the mat with breath, body, and mind. So without perfection, what does success look like in our practice? It’s through tapas we discover the quiet strength that lies within. This is the heart of yoga—a transformative journey that asks us to meet ourselves every single day.   Start the journey now with your free 30-day membership on Omstars.com. Use code: PODCAST.
