iYogaLife sat down with Molly Sims and her yoga teacher Kathleen Kastner at Maha Yoga in Santa Monica, California to learn a little bit about how this small town girl from Kentucky, who worried about bulking up her broad swimmer’s shoulders, slimmed down with flow classes in Hollywood. Her teacher makes sure she feels the burn, Molly says, so yoga alone keeps her buff and beautiful. But it’s the mantra, “Be still and know” that helps keep her sane. Check out these video clips and get the view from Molly’s mat.
