Yoga and creating space🧘🏻♀️
On the mat, we create physical space in our body by breathing—we create space into different parts of the body- the chest, the back, the belly, the ribs. We start visualizing our body as a vessel for our breath.
We also have to create room in our self practice to listen to ourselves. We listen to how we feel at that moment. Allowing our plans to change and evolve, and this flexibility comes from an open mind, and a capacity to keep room for change and creativity.
We create space in our minds during meditation, or breath work in the asanas, by quieting our minds and freeing a lot of the thoughts and worries that we keep there. Eighty percent of the thoughts we have every day are thoughts we may have already had the day before, and that we will have again the following day, so imagine how much space we gain by shutting them out even for just a couple minutes!
Have you tried creating space for yourself? 😊
