Yikes! I wasn’t expect this news to pop into my inbox on Monday morning... but as we know (ano something we should never lose sight of), life is full of surprises.
I thought it was inconvenient getting a recall letter about my Nissan Leaf and having to return it to the garage for safety checks, but this falls into a completely different category!
I felt a little triggered when I first received the email. My monkey mind immediately leapt into action, creating stories and scenarios that may never come to pass. But with a little space, breath and perspective, l’ve been able to reframe things.
I’ve reminded myself that I have the capacity to deal with whatever life places in front of me. That I don’t need to solve tomorrow’s problems today. That I can remain present rather than becoming tangled in the what-ifs, buts and maybes.
In many ways, this feels like the real practice of yoga. Beyond the poses, the Eight Limbs offer a guide for living with greater steadiness and awareness. They remind us that whilst we can’t control everything that happens around us, we can cultivate how we respond.
As Patanjali teaches, we practice showing up with consistency, and we practice letting go of our attachment to outcomes.
Or, in simpler words:
“Peace comes not from having a perfect life, but from meeting life as it is.”
I hope this is a supportive reminder, I’d like me, you needed it too! ❤️
