Expanding upon the teachings of Patanjali''s Yoga Sutras, the core text of the yoga tradition, Donna Farhi describes yoga''s transforming power as a complete life practice, far beyond its common reduction to mere exercise routine or stress management.

“If we define a Yoga practice as an awareness of and investment in our most cherished values, we may be dismayed to discover how little real energy we designate to the central purpose of our life. So when I speak of a habitual disinclination toward effort, I am speaking specifically about purposeful effort. In what ways are we sabotaging ourselves, and how can we extricate ourselves from the mire of self-indulgence?”—from Breaking Free from Sloth
