When you use Yoga intelligently, in other words, when you understand the purpose of yogic practices, you will find that sometimes it is easy to overcome the discombobulations of the mind, and sometimes it isn't.
You need to know the difference.
What you did yesterday may not work today. Each practice session you do, whether with a teacher or on your own is completely unique.
Stay present!
Yogic practices can very easily become another piece of equipment in your arsenal of remedies and fixes, something to make to feel better for a while.
Be aware of this.
Become clear, why are you doing the practice. What does it give you? Is it helping you? It may not be right for you to do it now etc.
You have a choice, and although you may not believe it yet, you will be able to see more clearly over time that the choices you make every minute of everyday lead to consequences.
Consequences are what we generally refer to as Karma.
If you are more intelligently informed, your choices are more conscious. Therefore you will create less (bad?) karma for yourself and others.
What makes you more intelligent?
It might be a good question to ask, what makes you less intelligent..........
What are you 'really' doing?
