Following the signs... That's what Suburban Yogini did this week, as you can read here.
We have all been through those times when it seems as though the whole Universe is pointing us in a certain direction. It starts as an idea, that like a seed once planted begins to take root and push its way inevitably upwards. We water this seed with our dreams, our ideas, our gut instincts, until finally it pushes its delicate head above the surface, blooming and blossoming from an idea into a definitive path, a signal marker pointing the way. All that remains is to start down the path.
Yoga helps us to recognise these signs. And by putting us in touch with our selves, Yoga also helps us to make the choice to follow them. For me, this is Satya - truthfulness - the desire to be true to yourself. Yoga helps us to realise that we are always choosing our reality - choosing how we act, whether or not to react, how we perceive a situation and what we do as a result. Yoga helps us to live more mindfully by going from a reactive frame of mind to a proactive frame of mind. So instead of letting our bodies, emotions and minds make choices for us, we are mindfully choosing how we experience life as it comes to us.
Where are the signs pointing for me? Well, you'll have to wait a little longer to find out! But there are things in the works, so stay tuned!!
Readers, what are the signs in your lives telling you?
