Finding the warmth within

I was thinking today about the cold outside in this winter when sometimes all you want to do is stay inside all day and drink hot tea under a warm blanket. Does'nt that sound good right now? :)

Anyway, it also got me thinking about how symbolic this season is. It reminded me of how some people remain stuck in their past, like a 'tundra' of their live's. Frozen and stuck. They collect the frozen 'corpses' of their past regret's, failure's and fear's. It thus become's a graveyard of their toxic memories and they become resigned to dwelling there, saying 'this is as good as it get's, this is my lot in life .' Sad but very true.

Now Im not saying all this to depress you, but to make a point. That we all have a choice, to either remain where we are in our pain and denial or to let go. To find our greatness, both on and off our mat's; this is something that often happen's when we let our pain melt away, when our soul's get stirred up and we awaken in our beauty. We let go of result's or being 'good enough' and surrender to what is. Here is now, this moment that you can make a better choice in, the past is gone. So wich one would you like to live in?

Because sometime's you must be seperated from the very thing's you think you 'need' . The thing's your lower nature is so dependant upon to keep you in the shadow's, as you continue to enable those who hurt you. To keep you afraid of who and what you truly are. Which is someone wonderful and uniquely strong, full of compassion.

I speak from experience because the above story is also my own. I cant tell you what's right or wrong for you as an individual I can simply share that the spiritual and physical practice of yoga can transform you, inside and out. A large part of my healing process was and is yoga. 

Find your healing today and be reminded that there is beauty and light that you hold within. Express yourself on your mat, No one, indeed nothing can take that from you. The moment's you shine on the mat are your's and your's alone.

To unlock the the truth of who you are, the passion and strength that lies in your heart. You owe it to yourself and those around you. The world need's your love and compassion, your service to other's. The help you offer in the darkness. 

Do not be locked into the regret's of your past. Do not look back at what you cant change anyway. Beside's, your pain can be the catalyst that fuel's the furnace that purifies your soul. Like the tear's that wash your heart free of the toxic lies, those fear's and doubt's. 

I strongly encourage you to birth something beautiful in your soul this year, let your love and light go out to other's. Carpe Diem, this is your time!

May all your days be blessed.
