I have looked at the word balance before and I realise that I haven’t been completely balanced in how I live my life. Lately my balance on the mat when doing yoga is a challenge to me, I see that along with my focus being off key I wobble and fall. Lol
I wobble and fall lately in my life process, where I will set an intention for myself and start living it, fully committed. Then for a moment something outside of myself distracts and unsettles me and for a moment I loose my balance. I then become annoyed and frustrated with myself in having to start over. This has been a pattern with me, and what I see/realise and understand is how I tend to put so much pressure on myself of going all out, one way I lose sight of having a perfect balance in my life. For example I may decide to drop a few pounds and for a few days/weeks I will commit to eating healthier and excersing a little more and within that I send the energy too much one way, and eventually (as energy has a habit of doing ) it runs out and I give up because I don’t trust myself enough to get back in track. Showing me as well that the initial energy is not real and lasting, because it’s in my mind.
Yoga has been so helpful to me in showing me where I lack balance in my life and within that a feeling of giving in, because I have been too hard on myself, instead of balancing everything out by breathing and slowing myself down and taking things one step at a time, and practicing until it is here as me.
