I’ve been practicing yoga more or less consistently for more than 15 years. Before the pandemic made the prospect of being in a sweaty room with a dozen other people too dangerous, I got up at 5:00am four days a week to go to classes before work. Since the pandemic made it difficult to practice in person, I have made do with classes on YouTube. Someday I hope to get back to in person classes. Yoga has been hugely beneficial to me, both physically and mentally. For many years, I have battled a low-level but persistent form of depression which is only really alleviated by regular physical activity. During the time I’ve been practicing yoga, I’ve tried to apply the lessons I’ve learned to other areas of my life, especially in how to be a better investor. Below are five lessons that I have taken from yoga and applied to my investing approach. I hope they are helpful for you too.
