A challenge is a journey that takes you outside your comfort zone, and tests the individual’s courage and determination. On the journey, we all felt radiant and jubilant at the peaks, and defiant and weary and in the troughs. Yet every test of our resolve brought us closer to our personal truth. Not only did the challenge set new standards of yogic conduct, it also helped us explore the power of shared purpose. Ali Hale Tilley
Last night we finished our 40 Day Challenge sharing gifts, dispensing prizes, and enjoying good company of our inner circle of participants.
