 "Yoga isn't easy. If it were, it wouldn't be yoga. It would be 'sitting on a couch.' Never accept the body's, or the mind's, first answer. Stay with discomfort. Ask more. You don't need to give up. When I say 'get up,' I mean stop thinking up reasons and GET UP. Go softly to your first edge. Go with the breath. Don't force it. Stop and wait if you need to. Wait for the edge to move. Now, GET UP. You do yourself no favors by letting yourself escape." - Tony Briggs, on backbends.
