Hi Insiders! I'm Ana from Korea.
I’m so thrilled to share my very very first flow with Inside Flow community. It means a lot to me.

I discovered the song Find Myself Again from YouTube. The video was titled "To you, who feels burned out by life." Here is the links! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTpbD4Y0IFU&list=RDCTpbD4Y0IFU&start_radio=1)

For a long time, I tried to be "perfect" like the perfect daughter, the perfect yoga teacher, with a perfectly scheduled life. But the harder I tried, the tougher life became. Ha... It’s ironic, isn't it? I realized I was trapped in a "hell" that I had created for myself, and I wanted to escape, so hardly.

I paused and asked myself.
"Who am I? Who do I really want to be? Why am I so obsessed with being perfect?" In the end, I realized all I really wanted was to feel loved by those I care about, and to live a happy, fulfilling life.

The last chorus really hit home. "Tell me that I'm worth it. Tell me how to love myself."
I realized I hadn't been kind to myself. I never told myself, "I'm worth it," or "I love you."

Now, instead of chasing perfection, I ask myself if I’m truly happy in the moment. That’s why I love Inside Flow. It allows me to move with my emotions and connect with the music. Whenever I look back at videos of myself doing Inside Flow, I see a woman who is smiling, crying, and truly living through every emotion. I can feel it every time I watch them. If this practice makes me this happy, I want to keep giving this gift to myself. I’m not the only one, right? Hhhhh.

Nowadays, I focus on the joy of the process rather than the result. Moving to music through Inside Flow has been the best way for me to express my emotions and find that happiness, fulfilling life.

As you move through this flow, I hope you feel the 'real you' in every breath and every transition of this flow(especially when you with jump switch skater). I truly root for you to be happy and self-love. Enjoy the flow!

A special shout out to the teachers who were in this video with me! Also, a huge thank you to Monika for your support in creating this flow. I couldn't have done it without you. Love you ALL!
