FIND YOUR INNER SUPERHERO
DHARMA TALK - OCTOBER 22/24, 2017 I HEART YOGA / VERONA YOGA STUDIO
When we think of heroism, we think of someone who puts their life on the line for someone else. A firefighter, a policeman, a soldier. The opportunity to perform at that level is not too common for the rest of us but that does not mean we can achieve our own level of personal heroism in our daily lives. Especially if we are faced daily with challenges, hurdles and risks ... and I'm not talking about the physical kind but the emotional kind. Challenges that ultimately hinder our personal growth and capacity to believe and accept ourselves because we simply allow them to.
But today is a great day to become your own superhero. And how do you accomplish that? You start treating yourself with the respect you deserve, you focus on you, you love yourself consistently, you do what you want and love, you commit to yourself, you stay true to yourself and you take solid action.
So for today, I invite you to commit to your yoga practice. Let your inner hero come out in every sequence and movement. Stay strong in your warriors. Challenge yourself and find your deepest expression in a pose. Allow yourself to use props and modifications ... after all even superheroes have their own weapons to beat the enemy. Most importantly, I invite you to take that mindset with you off the mat and in your daily lives.
