Dropping The Labels

We assign labels to ourselves and to others all the time.   I guess its a feeble effort to understand this crazy world around us. "Im not a morning person... he's bad with money... she's shy... I'm not very musical... he's so serious.... I'm depressed."  You are not inherently any of these things.

Yoga is a practice of observation and self-acceptance.  Our bodies and our minds feel a bit different every time we arrive on our mats.   The practice of the physical postures and the cultivation of a steady breath helps us to accept what is, and what will be, as an ever-changing thing.

As you get out of bed tomorrow morning, you’ll leave thousands of dead skin cells behind.  You’ll be a slightly different person tomorrow morning than the “you” who is reading this post right now.  Think about that as a symbol of your limitless potential and come to my class   We’ll practice dropping the labels and explore acceptance of the present moment with every breath.
