Asana in your ear
Added 2023-09-13 14:04:34 +0000 UTCHello, Icons!
I hope Asana is going well for you. Have you noticed anything coming up?
Fear, attachment, and aversion can arise when we practice various asanas. Particularly when they're new and if we assign a hierarchy to them.
Here's the thing - there is no hierarchy of postures. Sure, we might call some the Queen or King of Asanas. That's because of the benefits they bring us and not due to being in need of doing them in a specific way. If we're doing our best - meeting ourselves where we are - and surrendering to the breath and the moment - the Yoga is good.
On the other hand, if we're obsessing over what our asanas look like, we're missing the point entirely. Whether you love an asana or hate it, DO THE THING - This is Tapas - self-discipline - lighting the fires within to burn away our old patterns and habits.
In this podcast: The cat takes control, and I'm letting go of pretending I can change that. Also, and more importantly, I'm discussing some of the spiritual benefits of the asanas this month.
Hope you enjoy it.
Thank you so much for trusting me with your Yoga journey.
You're all the most incredible people, and I am forever grateful to have the opportunity to share these practices with you.
