Inner Peace is one of the core goals of yoga practice. At the very beginning of the Yoga Sutras, Patanjali states: "Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind" (Yogas chitta vritti nirodha). When the inner noise gradually subsides, we can see our true selves and experience a deep peace that doesn't depend on external conditions.

These articles share moments of peace experienced in practice and in life — perhaps total relaxation in a deep forward bend, the melting of body and mind during Savasana, or a sudden calm that arises when facing adversity. Inner peace isn't about escaping reality but about finding that unmovable centre amid the turmoil.
