“I think that yoga, it really is a process.”

Exercise is like an old friend: You may not be able to see that friend all the time, but you’re not mad when you see them, you’re happy, and you get right back into it.

Food is not your best friend or enemy.

Depriving yourself will, ironically enough, lead to rebelling and weight gain.

You choose happiness. You don’t wait for it to choose you.

I like to look nice, but I’m not marketing being beautiful.

I balance it all by being extremely organized, and I am a very efficient delegator.

I always know that I am where I am supposed to be. I don’t feel torn and I think that is really important.

If you start giving your kids anxiety about food, it’s going to last a lifetime. Moms have to lead by example. Don’t say, “Oh, my jeans don’t fit,” or “Oh, I was bad.” No diets. Nothing like that.

Let’s be clear, I’m a strong woman.

The only way I’m interested in having a baby is the old-fashioned way.

Taste everything, eat nothing.

I despise shopping and department stores.

You cannot show people only the petals and not the thorns. It’s not fair to them.

I have the most beautiful daughter in the world and I’m grateful for her.

I enjoy business. I enjoy inspiring women.

I don’t believe in diets.

Yoga has to be done with the intellect of the head as well as the intellect of the heart

First yoga deals with health, strength and conquest of the body. Next, it lifts the veil of difference between the body and the mind. Lastly, it leads the Sadhaka to peace and unalloyed purity.

I don’t stretch my body as if it is an object. I do yoga from the self towards the body, not the other way around.

The aim of yoga is to calm the chaos of conflicting impulses.

Yoga allows you to rediscover a sense of wholeness in your life.

It is through the alignment of the body that I discovered the alignment of my mind, self, and intelligence.

Yoga allows you to find a new kind of freedom that you may not have known even existed.

Yoga is when every cell of the body sings the song of the soul.
