Life
requires that we learn to adapt and adjust to life’s situation. Otherwise we
risk stress, illness and even destruction. When you move into a yoga pose you
must adjust, adapt and finally settle into it. If you struggle you will lose
your balance and this is most likely because you have given away your
flexibility, your focus and your strength. Stress and other mental distractions
may also be involved. Often when we encounter stress we struggle. So we use the yoga poses as a means of learning
how to deal with life’s situation. Each
pose has something to teach you. For example if you lose your balance in tree
most likely you let go of your ability to be flexible and sway like a tree
while holding firm to your grounding. Let’s start with quieting the mind and then
begin to explore and observe struggle, adaptation, adjustment and surrender.
If you find
yourself struggling with the situations of life, you will lose your balance and
this is most likely because you have given away your power which is your
ability to be flexible while maintaining your strength. As you step into life’s
situations try to take a moment to step back and observe. Find your balance,
flexibility and strength and then adapt and adjust to the situation with
compassion and understanding and not judgement. The situation may not change,
but your approach to it will.
