"Letting go is the hardest asana."

Most of us come to yoga to increase flexibility, fitness and or strength. Yoga offers these...plus an added bonus, one that can be found only by letting go. In your practice this evening, let go of the tension held in your body, to loosen it, soften it, open it, so that internal blockages and obstructions, formed by negative emotions and thoughts, can be shaken up, cleansed and washed away.
