I believe yoga is not about how deep you can fold into /how long you can hold yourself upside down, it’s about knowing yourself more and working on yourself accordingly.
Had a private class with student and she shared with me that after almost 3 years with me, helped her to learn how to take deep breaths in live situations.
That makes her let go of the hand holding so tight about her son’s “problems”.
“Usually I would be triggered and non stop shouting for 30mins, but last night my son refuse to sleep at bed time, I took a deep breath when that urge came again , and a thought pop up “Why did I shout angrily? What am I holding onto?” “This angry monster isn’t me”
Then she decided….
LET GO.
Did her best and let others be other , she understood that angry shouting woman is not who she is nor what she wants to be. That anger doesn’t help with the situation, might hurting herself , her son and the relationship.
She no longer holding so tight on controlling the outcome.
After letting go on the “執著”, no more angry shouting.
Her son still pushing bed time , without transforming into an angry monster,
she’s able to be a herself again.
