My name is Patrick and I practice yoga out of Power Yoga Canada Etobicoke. It’s amazing to be writing this and to look back at the journey that brought me to where I am today physically, mentally and spiritually.
Back in 2010, I was in a job I did not enjoy and each day was a struggle. I’ve always been a physically active person, but even that could not get me out of the rut I was in mentally. After much contemplation about various future career opportunities, I had a sudden awakening. After this realization, I left that unfulfilling job and never returned. I pursued my love of animals and started my own Pet Services business. I own dogs and love them so very much; they bring me such joy and happiness, so it only made sense to try and surround myself with that energy on a daily basis to achieve true happiness and personal growth.
A few years into establishing my business, I was extremely happy with my new path but something was missing. In 2013 a relative of mine who had been practising yoga suggested I take a class as it was something I had never tried before. Getting out of my comfort zone and trying a hot power yoga class was the best thing I ever did. I have never looked back after that first class. Yoga became such a huge part of changing my life and connecting me to what was missing. A monumental shift happened spiritually and I was able I apply my sense of calm to my job and the animal beings I work with.
After a bit of a personal speed bump, which interfered with my practice, I realized even more so how much I missed the practice and needed it in my life. I returned in April of last year and once again haven’t looked back. I practice 4-5 times a week and I cannot emphasize enough the personal growth and power my practice has instilled in me, spiritually, physically and mentally. Even in my personal life, I am at peace and happy and now only surround myself with likeminded spirits. I’m physically in the best shape of my life as well.
I cannot emphasize enough how much my yoga practice has added to, and changed my life for the better in so many ways. I am as healthy physically, spiritually, emotionally and mentally as I have ever been. For anyone looking to make a change in their life, I would definitely suggest taking a class and feel for yourself the difference. It’s one of the best things I ever did.
