There was one of those days when my balance was off and I couldn’t hold the postures. I felt frustration rising, and my ego wanted to prove something, to seek validation. So I stopped. I allowed my emotions to be there and simply observed them, and little by little they began to dissipate.
This mantra came to me: “I am not here to seek validation. I am here to be as I am.”
There are days when our energy feels super high and days when we just want to slow down, and that is okay. I keep reminding myself that I am not my past, my heritage, my expectations, or my conditioned patterns.
I am just here to learn, and to keep learning. 💛
As Yoga Sutra 1.12 reminds us: steady, dedicated practice, combined with letting go, brings calm and clarity.
