Resistance
Hello Friends!
This week’s New Moon in Scorpio has brought an intense energy pushing us to face challenges and issues that we may have put on the back burner. Many people may be feeling unsettled or cranky as a result. It can be easy to default into resistance when difficult emotions and situations arise. However, once we notice our resistance, we can pause, breathe, and make a choice about how to move forward. Acknowledging the difficulties while at the same time finding beauty, love, and joy in them can help us to find a greater sense of balance in the moment rather than being overwhelmed by it. Each time we find ourselves resisting is an opportunity to practice, to learn a little more about ourselves, and to offer ourselves lovingkindness and compassion. Celebrating when we notice we’ve gone down the rabbit hole again is an opportunity to both honor our wisdom of noticing, to breathe, and to try something different.
Please to join me for Saturday Morning Yoga via Zoom at 8:30 AM MT as we show up for ourselves on the mat and care for ourselves with lovingkindness.
