  Speaker 1: That's what yoga reminds us to do.

• 5:48
  Speaker 1: It's about finding moments of peace and finding meaning for yourself.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: What is the meaning of the holidays for yourself?
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: And Just, just remember that you don't have to participate in all the chaos.

  Speaker 1: I think yoga in the physical fitness helps ground you.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Take the time also to do some meditation and soul the mind.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: That's one of my favorite things about yoga is the corpse pose, where you're the very last move, where you're laying there and you're just in silence with your eyes closed for five minutes.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I try to least lay there for five minutes and and and it really does center you really well.
• 6:24
