Lifestyle is one of the most powerful determinants

Lifestyle is one of the most powerful determinants of our inner evolution. The way we live, from what we eat, how we sleep, the company we keep, to the thoughts we nourish, creates conditions that are either conducive or obstructive to awakening. The Sanskrit term vihāra means “dwelling” or “way of life,” while āhāra refers not only to food, but to all forms of intake: what we consume through the senses, the media we watch, the words we hear, the emotions we absorb.

The yogic path, then, is not only what happens on the mat or the cushion; it is a full participation in life where each gesture and breath becomes part of the practice. Our modern world trains us toward speed, accumulation, and comparison. Yoga trains us toward simplicity, steadiness, and sufficiency. When we orient our lives toward peace, we begin to see how the outer forms of practice like the poses are mirrors of an inner alignment.

Each time we step on the mat, we are not striving for the end of practice but nurturing the conditions that allow the yogi’s mind to blossom. The purpose of daily practice is not to perfect form, but to refine perception.

Ultimately, lifestyle is not a secondary concern in yoga—it is yoga. It is the lived manifestation of consistent practice. When our way of living begins to express the stillness of our practice, we realize that the goal was never elsewhere. The mat, the meal, the morning, the breath, all of it becomes the sacred ground of awakening.

Sometimes I ask myself if I am aligning my doing with what actually matters? Seen in this frame, even small actions may carry more weight than usual. A message, a meeting or a piece of writing may feel underpinned by quiet discipline rather than wild spontaneity and mirror the answer. It’s not a measurement of output, but a feeling of presence. Practice, lineage, commitment, devotion, intention—all arise from a place beyond the marketplace of performance.

What about you? What are your inner reflections bringing up today?

So often, we come to meditation hoping to quiet the mind, only to discover how impossibly noisy it really is. I remember being told once, “Just close your eyes and make the mind still,” and feeling almost defeated before I began. But the truth is, meditation isn’t about forcing silence, it’s about learning to be with what is.

For years, my practice has been less about escaping thought and more about befriending it. Each sit is an invitation to notice, to breathe, to witness the rising and falling waves of the mind without getting swept away. And in that simple act of staying, even for a breath, something begins to shift. The heart softens. Awareness expands. Stillness emerges not from control, but from surrender.

Yoga teaches us through movement; meditation teaches us through stillness. Together they form the two wings of the same path. Asana strengthens and purifies the body, while meditation refines and clarifies the mind. One prepares the ground, the other reveals what’s already there< the quiet turning toward truth.

The Buddha said, “One who sees impermanence sees the Dhamma.” To see that everything changes is not a cause for sorrow, but an opening to wisdom. When we stop clinging to what fades, we finally taste the peace that doesn’t.

This week on the Yoga Inspiration Podcast, we explore the meeting place of movement and stillness, of yoga and meditation, and how the truth of impermanence can become the doorway to freedom.

Sometimes you have to move back to move forward. Galavasana is just like that. If you try to lift the leg and the body straight up, you’ll feel stuck and heavy. Instead, if you let the leg travel back, engage the arms, and then lift the leg, the whole movement will feel more accessible and connected.

We spent the last two days building up to this very challenging arm balance. Did you join? If not next week, we’ll be working on the skills of jumping back and jumping through.

Practice with me on @omstarsofficial online My next Yoga Drills live will be from Miami in this week on Wednesday and Thursday at 1 pm EST as part of my new course! Become a member today and join us for practice.
