This inspiring quote comes to us from @calgarybeautynurse on our Instagram page. Thanks for sharing!
We were inspired to learn more. Turns out, Yogi Ramacharaka was the pseudonym of William Walker Atkinson, born in Baltimore, Maryland in 1862. According to Wikipedia, he was a stressed-out and overworked attorney and merchant, until a mental breakdown led him to re-assess his ways of thinking. He began exploring Hinduism and Yoga, and is considered an American pioneer of the New Thought movement, a spiritual movement of the early 1900s. He wrote an estimated 100 books in the last 30 years of his life.
Sounds a little Type A! Can anyone relate?
