In our yoga and in our lives, when we are stretching and building strength, sometimes the biggest gift we can give ourselves is to identify the nuances of what stress we can release. What and where we can loosen our grasp. Finding the delicate balance and sweetness of release.
When you know what you need, be sure you get it!
Now, I don’t mean at the expense of all else. I am suggesting that through our self-knowledge, understanding of our growth and needs, that we listen to our wisdom and experience, and take care of ourselves.
When we feel there is no time to spare, stop and breathe!
What is time really? We have this very moment. Breathe and give opportunity to have awareness of the moment, of your breathe, body, air, light, earth. How incredible that we are alive and here!
What is most important to you?
Deep inside, what do you hold as dear and valuable? If you are not sure, give yourself time and space to explore. If you know, then let what is dear and valuable to you, be the center of your life, even if it is not possible at this time to devote most of your time there. Your heart and mind can be there.
