Defining what it means for me...
What it means is changing my views and how I see the world and keeping my Attention on the now in presence and my ultimate INtention on where I am headed.
As students of the flow of yoga, we eventually get to a place in our "planning" and even goal setting where we create the vision, work diligently and sometimes discreetly, and in some cases; step right into the fire, only to come out the other side more disciplined, fluid, expansive and fulfilled. We get to this place, in part, by leaving room for the goodness, abundance, and beauty of life to unfold in its most auspicious ways that come to fruition somewhere between our rigid outline----and the space we create by softening into the possible unfolding that we could not have possibly planned for otherwise.
Somewhere along my journey, I have come to trust that the source I bow to the essence of brings just what I need to light and right onto my path and sometimes in the most interesting packages, and / or in ways that I could not have ever written out even with the most spiritually divine-filled pen on the planet.
It's all as it should be and its all changing and evolving and steadily, I find patience in this understanding and silky movement where I was once rigid and with a need to tightly hold on.
When I set out for Bali, I brought with me many intentions that I would begin to cultivate and practice with the intention of clearing and freeing things I was holding onto that I simply didn't want to be carrying... and as the teachers of life would have it, I began the day before I left.
All the time people ask me how often I practice, for how long and when I started. My practice is every day, in every moment that I can sit with myself and find forgiveness, patience, self soothing and my inner warrior/She "wolf". These days, this is the hardest work I ever do... you can run me, take me through any asana class on the planet, put me through "Angie" workout over and over and over and my body may get tired but THIS is the life changing, profound stuff.
You want to change your life? Step into something that scares the shit out of you. Physically, mentally, emotionally and the result is spiritual.
Step right into your fear and CHANGE.
Right here.
Do it.
Now.
I dare you.
