2-3:30 a practice in letting go, movement and stillness, flow and holding, yin and yang.
3:45-4:45 gentle yoga flow. Just enough to get your blood oxygenated and your self ready for a really affective sweet savasana.
Sometimes it doesn’t look, feel, work, fit, move, show up the way we expect. When it comes to ourselves, our minds and our bodies we seek balance. The letting go of the expectation of “perfection”. In that we accept our utterly perfect imperfections, our unique shapes, thoughts, movements, colors, abilities and all the other wonders that make each of us so amazingly individualized.
And, this is a tall order for most of us most of the time.
So, we practice. We practice. We show up to the practice of letting go of those expectations, letting go of the belief that we know what our experience of this, that and/or the other is supposed to be like. We let go of our need to control.
AND when we practice this in small ways, in mantra, in asana, in front of the mirror, on social media, in the day to day all, we not only expose that we too are just human but it begins to overflow into the big picture, into the large scheme, this simplifying our days and nights, bringing ease and compassion not only to ourselves but others. It allows access to a deep residence in equanimity.
And, this we come back to again and again, only through all the little ways we practice over and over. Practice makes progress.
So, I invite you to take the first or second or … or second first step with me on our mats at fitfablife
