@derekberes Good stuff Derek, always happy seeing you here. This one brings back a lot of memories from my early yoga days "Claiming that you’re practicing nonattachment instead of confronting unresolved trauma, for example, will likely lead to the perpetuation of that trauma."

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

I should write something thoughtful and philosophical. Like, here with my daily reminder I have no idea what I’m doing.

But the truth is, I totally kicked her butt.

On a serious note, I want to know what you think… https://t.co/cDGY2jEnOM

The world reflects what’s in us. Our job is to change what’s inside. The world will keep doing its job. #BoFVOICES https://t.co/R9qPtZtSzD

What we need is a practice that’s practiced all the time, in all the hours, in all the places. Which carries us into a different world, where we are sustainable, connected, harmonious and at peace in our selves. https://t.co/cPQn8uNC7p

Just home from @BoF VOICES, super-smart people reshaping the world in their everyday actions.

Thought for right now is the world is a perfect reflection of how we are with our selves.… https://t.co/51vs9BAMpp

It's extremely daring to be yourself. It's also the best teacher there is. https://t.co/lDneswho13

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

When things seem immovable, choose peace. You could choose bashing against what seems immovable. Or you could begin by changing you. Soften, enough that you are movable. Creativity grows from here. https://t.co/uLxAk9FK3J

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

Put your focus on moving well, without worrying about specific forms like yoga or tai chi. In this way, the forms can arise naturally out of you. Which works much better than you trying to fit your unique self into someone else's form.

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

When you choose to approach the challenges inside you by getting more connected & peaceful rather than disconnected & aggressive - when you choose the same for the challenges outside - it’s infectious. https://t.co/frre3OFeEL

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

Mostly things get hard and uncomfortable when we project forward too much, away from here, into what lies ahead. But right here we can handle. So long as we’re here. https://t.co/bLb46mqOVP

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

So many groups - not just in yoga - have had 10s or 100s of years learning to control us by making us feel small. Luckily we have something working in our favor. We're not small. And truth is infectious.

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

It's the idea of perfect that gets in the way of perfect.

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

Perfect isn't an idea, a shape, a picture. Perfect is a constantly moving internal response to who + how you are right now.

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

This one includes an introduction to tai chi, as a new vocabulary for learning to move both nicely and naturally in life :) https://t.co/odUQb1R85O

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

When our idea of perfect has to do with the outsides of things, we wind up pointing in the wrong direction. https://t.co/eP2k1YVbnY

[Strala Yoga @Strala_Yoga]

We’ve all felt a push to conform, when our minds are heavy with information, but still distant from our selves https://t.co/iKKOe94Ccc

[Michael Taylor @MichaelTaylor8]

Think less to do more. It’s how who we are becomes free to create what we are. #StralaSummer17 https://t.co/jggCto28Jq
