KEEPING YOUR APPOINTMENT WITH LIFE
If we view our lives not as this experience of obligation (not so much I should do this which feels like we’re in trouble for not doing it already) but instead what appointments are you keeping for your life that are the most valuable and life affirming it makes it all easier. All hard edges seem to soften.
Thich Nhat Hanh says it like this: “We have an appointment with life, and that appointment takes place in the present moment. If we miss the present moment, we miss our appointment with life, which is serious.”
While we’re busy coming up with reasons not to keep our appointments, spin your perspective and make real (realize) that they are moving you in the direction of your best life. So time on the mat gives us that opportunity to check in with ourselves and take stock of how we’re doing for the sake of our health and over all well-being. But it begins by acknowledging which Life Appointments are the most vital. What are they for you? How are you doing keeping your appointments? Is YOGA a life appointment you want to keep? If yes, then join me on the mat. I will always support you! Love and light, Silvia
