Yoga Institute East Coast- Yoga Teacher Training and National Certification

In dwelling, be close to the land. In meditation, go deep in the heart.

In dealing with others, be gentle and kind. In speech, be true.

In ruling, be just. In business, be competent. In action, watch the timing.

~Lao Tsu
