**“Yoga chitta vritti nirodhah.”** Yoga is the calming of the fluctuations of the mind.
The last few days I have felt heavy.
Overwhelmed by everything happening in the world.
Normally, I try being mindful of what I consume, what I give my attention to, and what I allow into my nervous system.
I try to remember that my energy is sacred.
But I got pulled in.
Into the news. The emotions. The collective fear.
And somewhere along the way, I forgot to protect my inner space.
Today I remember: I need to return to my own light.
Not to ignore the world.
Not to pretend nothing is happening.
But because I truly believe that when many of us choose to stay grounded, calm, and conscious — we bring more light into dark times.
The Yoga Sutras remind us that yoga is about calming the movements of the mind. When the mind is constantly shaken, we lose clarity. And without clarity, we cannot respond with wisdom.
Staying in your light during dark periods is not selfish.
It is responsible.
Being your own guru means listening inward.
It means knowing when to step back.
It means remembering that your inner state matters.
We cannot change the world by adding more fear to it.
But we can soften it by staying connected to our own steadiness.
So today I choose to return.
To breath.
To awareness.
To my own light.
And maybe, if enough of us do the same, the darkness slowly becomes lighter.
