I take care of my body with a daily yoga practice in which I focus on alignment and strength. I take care of my mind and soul with daily meditation practice. But most important, I practice deep inner listening. I rest when I need to rest, I eat what is most nourishing, I forgive, and I love myself and others.

I stay fit by practicing yoga, walking everywhere in my awesome city, and going to dance class two to three times a week. I eat well and do not deprive myself. Also, I meditate regularly. The inner fitness is just as important to me as the outer!

I maintain my physical, mental, and spiritual health by doing activities that deepen my yoga practice and keep me in good shape. I teach and practice yoga daily. I also do meditation, dharma talks, and yoga trainings to improve my practice. I love to hike, walk, take spin classes, and bike around San Francisco.

Saraswati Clere Yoga-studio founder and Yogawoman film producer Like most New Zealanders, I grew up surrounded by mountains and forests and loved any opportunity to be in nature. At a young age, I immersed myself in a yoga lifestyle. Nowadays, I own a yoga studio in Berkeley and spend as much time as I can exploring the wondrous beauty of Northern California. A perfect regimen. YOGAKULA.COM
