Question 1 of 2

Which three friends work together in yoga?

The story

Quarky tries yoga for the first time and learns it is three friends working together: breathing, stretching, and paying attention. His poses are wobbly and giggly, and that is exactly right.

What you'll learn

  • Yoga puts breathing, movement, and attention together.
  • Wobbly and giggly poses still count as yoga.
  • Calm takeaway: yoga is breath, movement, and attention together.
  • Quarky takeaway: you do not have to be perfect to begin.
