I’m a very typical yoga-practicing musician; I do it when I can. I’m not hardcore about it. A lot of my lyrics talk about celebrating life and working through pain. I think that’s what yoga’s about, getting rid of, moving energy and letting it flow through you.

I think anyone who is an artist or writer or owns their own business or whatever can agree that when you come up with something on your own, it’s an addictive feeling.

Artist Feelings Thinking
