Constina Alston-Howley
I have been practicing yoga for over 20 years. For me, my practice began as a way to escape the stress of corporate America and to get a good stretch in before or after cardio. But truth be told, I kept returning to the mat/studio because after each class I felt more grounded-connected to my true self. On and off the mat, I make a conscious effort to be authentic in my words as well a my actions, and I encourage others to do the same. I emphasize the importance of aligning breath with movement; finding stillness and expression in the mind; connecting with one's own energy.
