CINDY MASTRY: Namaste. My name is Cindy Mastry, and in this clip we're going to discuss the perfect pose. The perfect pose doesn't exist. There is no perfect pose. Everybody is different. The way their body moves, the way the body is put together, it's all different. So no pose is going to look exactly the same on everyone's body. You have to learn to honor your body and only take to the pose to where it feels good for you today. Your balance is different everyday. Your whole body structure is different everyday. So you need to know that and not be disappointed if one day you can do a pose and the next day maybe that pose doesn't work for you. We have to remember that this is the journey not the destination, so the joy is in finding the pose and how it's different everyday. You are limited by certain factors such as your bone structure and the tension in your muscles. So no matter how you look at it, there is no perfect pose. No two poses will look the same. No two people will be able to do the poses the same way. You have to let go of ego, let go of competition and just allow yourself to feel the poses from the inside out.
