In I jumped into yoga after facing multiple back surgeries or extensive physical therapy  Ok ok ok; so my physical therapist told me I didnt need to see her since my wife is a yoga teacher  I started practicing yoga under my wifes Brooke Brueckner guidance at nearly less than a year later and after experiencing amazing results I decided to learn to teach and live yoga  Now I am a living testimony to the overall benefits of yoga practicing and living; learning all that I can  Understanding that every student body is a teacher and every teacher is a tool to helping maintain a healthy happy life   As a disabled veteran once still facing the struggles of war and a deteriorating spine I now understand the battle was only of my mind and body working against itself  Yoga has brought balance and awareness and has helped me maintain a healthy physical mental and spiritual growth  I am no longer bound to the physical and mental heaven and hell of what I once lived but instead I am comfortable in the growth of un-growing; making every practice and minute count and every pain a new lesson  I look to modern-day mentorship not only through my wife but through BodSphere and take their passion for overall health and wellness into my practice  As well as follow teachings of Gurus both past and present; such as BKS Iyengar Sadhguru Sri Ravi Shankar and countless others who have proven to pursue humanity and its overall wellness The word yoga means "union" and we should all be together or in union in this thing called humanity Ultimately that starts with us as individuals in bringing our hearts bodies and minds in union first.
