Life is serious...things happen that need serious attention and time. Life is also fun, happy, exciting, humorous and (if you're like me) a comic relief for the serious times. Funnily enough, yoga is the same way.
It is easy to think that yoga is a serious time for meditation, reflection and physical energy release. What we seem to forget about yoga is the emotional energy release that is also a HUGE part of the practice. Laughing, crying, giggling uncontrollably, these are all different types of emotional releases that are welcome sounds in the practice room, not interruptions.
Practice is all about balance, whether you're trying to balance your utthita trikonasana (triangle pose), balance your emotional health, or create a balance in your practice between physical and emotional release.
Bottom line... you need to feel free to release anything and everything in your yoga class. If you think that your current practice doesn't allow this, maybe it's time to do yourself a favor and shop around a little bit. Do what you need to do to discover the best version of yourself.
