I am a writer and editor based in Doha, Qatar. A practitioner for more than a decade, I teach Ashtanga yoga and have advanced due to dedication to a daily practice. As the physical practice deepens; however, I experience hints of how powerful a mental practice based on the same level of dedication could be. How it could potentially transform my life and unlock channels that are stuck due to thought patterns that are just out of my conscious reach to assess before related reactions have taken place. Furthermore, I suspect that meditation will have me going deeper and growing up further based on the observation of, and ability to release, thoughts and behaviors I don't yet realize exist.
