When your inner light is feeling dull, or muted, diving into the yoga practice is usually the best remedy. And the more you practice, the brighter that light inside of you begins to shine. <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"dropcap\">A<\/span>t the heart of every sentient being is the light of spirit. Called Puru\u1e63a\u00a0in Sanskrit, it means that each of us has the potential to shine like a star with the luminosity of the spirit within us. You could even say that yogis shine like the stars that they really are. Tapas, literally translated as heat or fire, purifies the body and mind by kindling the inner light.\u00a0Pata\u00f1jali\u2019s Yoga S\u016btra 2.43 states that after many years of disciplined practice the body glows with an inner light.<\/p>\n<p>While we all know that practicing yoga comes with a host of mental, physical and spiritual benefits, but did you know that when you practice with us on OMStars \u2014 the Yoga Network \u2014 you can explore all the aspects of the yoga practice? There are classes and course to keep you inspired and practicing daily, and we encourage accountability with our incentive system that\u2019s designed to reward you for time spent immersing yourself into the yogi life via\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/omstars.com\/\">OMstars.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how it works:<\/p>\n<p>We track all practice hours accumulated with us online which allow to you earn points.<br \/>\nFor every moment that you spend practicing, meditating and immersing yourself in practice and study focused content, you earn points. The points you earn determine your \u201clevel\u201d as an OMstars practitioner.

The more practice hours you put in, the brighter you shine \u2013 both symbolically and physiologically.<\/p>\n<p>We know that our point system can\u2019t track every hour you\u2019ve been practicing so we don\u2019t judge.
