Day 3

SVADHAYA

The practice of self-study. Often people come to yoga because of what they can get. More flexibility, less stress…but today’s intention is one that invites us deeper. To explore.

In that pose, do you talk to yourself negatively or positively? In that pose, are you able to stay with your breath, or do you lose it? Throughout class, did you take breaks when you needed them, drink water, adjust the movements to movements that are appropriate for your body?

We step on the mat to end suffering…but we won’t get there unless we realize why we suffer? Maybe the voice in our head isn’t ours, but someone who has had more space in our lives than they should. Maybe we never actually chose our own values, and behaviors.

Cultivating discernment and observation on the mat, and off, is today’s intention. Study yourself..so you can create the next version of yourself more intentionally from this moment on.

Until tomorrow,

ILY,

BIG.
