live consciously

Studying yoga philosophy is very helpful in living consciously. For example, today I read about non-sensuality. While at first, to my liberal mind, it seemed like a restrictive notion, the more I read it, the more I realized the virtue of it. Basically, with every action, you strive to be one with Spirit, instead of indulging senses. We should strive to act out of joy and service.

“I consciously choose hope, peace, and joy in everyday life.”

I got this quote from the book, Quantum Success. I say it several times to remember what is most important to me as I go about my day. You can also customize it. For example, you can say: “I consciously choose courage, truth, and love in everyday life.”
