Moving From Darkness to Your Inner Light: A Winter Solstice Event
Wednesday 12/21 marks this year's winter solstice, the northern hemisphere’s longest night of the year. Let the darkness be a welcoming invitation to go within and connect to your own inner pilot light. #yinyoga
Start early in the AM with meditation. As you inhale whisper to self, “peace in” as you exhale, “peace out.” Just feel what it’s like and not be CAUGHT by binary thinking. Come to see Thoughts or vrittis as empty, no essence. Just practice, watch what happens. Release of Moja.
The thinking mind is not the wise self. Awareness happens by being conscious and it happens through the body. Where are you aware right now? Mind or heart? How can we hold all these things that happen and be more spacious? Train how to have a non reactive mind. #mindfulofbody
Tune into sensations of the body and breathing, loving kindness, and equanimity. Develop a different relationship to the body-versus being involved with ideas about yourself. Not the concepts of how you look or achieve. With meditation you make direct contact; interrupt thoughts.
