In a book I was reading recently called The Desire Map by Danielle Laporte, I came across this explanation of why we feel resistance every time we institute a healthy chance in our lives (like coming to yoga regularly!). We know it is makes us feel good, we know we need it, yet after a couple of weeks or even a few days we find ourselves skipping class for dinner with friends, or work, or sleep, or whatever. Read this excerpt to understand why resistance is actually an exciting experience that means we are on the verge of something great!
