Being kinder to yourself takes practice. Lotsssss of it. But the more you practice, the easier it becomes. 🌼 that goes for pretty much anything in life, on or off the mat.
.
Today I practice kindness, with myself and others. When I get off track, I get right back on as soon as I remember. I am kind, I am love. 🧡

My black friday: No need for sales, crowds, lines, or material stuff. Just nature and my soul sisters 🧡🍂
.
One of my personal goals is to always have Thanksgiving vibes: an attitude of gratitude is the highest yoga!

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated." -Mahatma Ghandi
💚
Not eating anymore animals was the next logical step to me when I began my yoga journey.
.
There are 8 limbs of yoga, one of which are the yamas, or ethical restraints. There are 5 yamas that can help you gain self-awareness and cultivate a deep sense of peace.
.
Ahimsa is the 1st yama which means non harming, injuring, killing, or doing violence. However, it is more about the intent or attitude of the mind, rather than the action itself.
.
'As our journey unfolds, it leads to awareness of the peaceful and enduring core that is our true nature; the desire to prevent harm is a spontaneous expression of that awareness. We begin to realize that the inner self in others is identical to our own inner self, and we wish no harm to come to any being.'
.
“Ahimsa, rightly understood, is the ultimate weapon; it turns one’s enemy into a friend, thereby banishing the possibility of further conflict. In the practice of yoga, it is important to understand that the same life flows in the veins of all creatures.” – Swami Kriyananda
💚
I am vegan because of my health, the animals, and our planet, & I'm vegan because I'm a yogi...and this is my truth!

In fact, it usually does more damage to us if we hold on.
.
Look back at the times you had an attachment to a person, thing, or belief, and didn't want to let it go. You would have rather DIED than to let go because of the fear of loss or fear of the unknown.
.
Then something happened where you had to, or you were forced, or time eroded the desire of the attachment, or you just finally mustered the courage to let go completely. I'll bet that the outcome turned out in your favor, one way or another.
.
Remember that bravery & strength. Remember the growth & wisdom gained. Remember that complete surrender, trust, and faith.
.
Today, I remember. And just for today, I choose to let go and practice non-attachment. Tomorrow, I plan to remember... but if I should forget, well it's ok, because pain will always help me remember again.
.
And so the cycle continues, until a yogi reaches complete non-attachment = moksha (liberation). Who wouldn't want that? Let's release those attachments yogi's!
