Between class musings on the mat 🧡
That feeling of life happening to us can be so real- looking at the diary and thinking "once that's out of the way, then I can think/rest/take a breath/fill in the blank".
And before we know it, another day/week/season has passes with life just happening to us. Those patterns of behaviour, thinking, being just rolling on by. Unengaged. Leaving us a bit frazzled. A bit disconnected. Not quite where we may have planned. Unintentional.
In yoga these repeated patterns are called samskaras - developed over lifetimes (ours and others) of repeated unexamined patterns.
On the mat we can play with these - pausing, choosing. Off the mat we can do the same. This is something we explore in my whole-person coaching work - bringing in intentionality to life.
Because as John Lennon said "life is what happens when you're busy making other plans".
So the invitation today is to pause, notice, and be a participant in this life of yours. Engaging with the now - not the "when that is done".
A challenge for me as well as you 🙂😘✨️xx
