"Namaste" is something that is said aloud at the end of a yoga class by all participants. I believe it's important to understand what Namaste means, but also who it's being said to. When you say Namaste, know that you are giving something to yourself, to your instructor, the students around you and to the universe.
Wikipedia has an excellent entry on Namaste, including several meanings or translations. This one is my favorite and I plan to use it as my morning meditation for the first 5 days of the challenge:
"I honor the place in you in which the entire Universe dwells, I honor the place in you which is of Love, of Integrity, of Wisdom and of Peace. When you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, we are One."
