About Purvi
how we do anything
is how we do everything. why we do things matters.
I have been studying yoga for most of my life, in many cases without knowing it. The ideas. The metaphors. The connections, big and small, they are an essential part of how I do everything. Parent. Partner. Create. Teach. Volunteer. Play. It’s the thread within my values and how I move through the world. It’s more than the shapes I make with my body it’s the embodiment of these shapes and the ideas they hold. Yoga is my favorite tool for life.
This is why I started @alchemyoftheself
At first I thought it might be a book. A compilation and accumulation of the things I have acquired. And yet, it is more tangible. Applicable. It is a practice. A series. Within the seasons of nature to gain insight to the seasons of our lives.

Why we do what we do matters. Our desires propel us into action which ripples out into the world. From these actions there is a reverberation of reactions moving across the universe.
Yoga is a tool for presence. It’s ability to harness our attention to the here and now. Nature is part of a greater story. Great Creation. As is the cosmos. Our ability to see ourselves as part of the equation, essential to a whole and as Great Creatives, allows us to merge these ideas and come back to One.
