Practice for the Benefit of All Beings by Lexie Wolf

Yoga aims to cultivate individuals who contribute positively to the world, living in harmony with themselves, the earth, and others—striving not only to do no harm but also to actively improve our shared existence.

In both Yoga and Buddhism, the principle of Bodhicitta, loosely translated as "practice for the benefit of all beings," underscores this intention. Sometimes in our classes, we include a dedication or prayer to embody this principle. This simple act encapsulates the essence of Yoga: each time you allow your inner light to shine, the universe becomes more loving, peaceful, and joyful.
