Writing college essay about yoga?

Hi,
I’m applying ED to Connecticut College. Last year I had around a 4.0, in the last quarter a 4.3. I’m taking harder classes this semester so I might be going down to a 3.8 this quarter. I’m really not an athletic person and one of the ECs that I engage in the most is yoga. I take the yoga classes at my school, I go to yoga studios, etc. It has really changed who I am as a person. I’m applying to be a premed student so I’ve also been interested in a form of holistic yoga medicine, Ayurveda. Would it be good to write about the effect yoga has had on me or is it not a good topic for an essay? The prompt I’d be responding to is the one where it asked about one of your interests.

i think that’s a grand idea!
