that is what i heard in class on day sixteen from the instructor. she wasn't just speaking about holding our poses she was speaking to balance in our life as well.
as a libra i always think about how my symbol is balance but i am so unbalanced. i get weighed down by one activity or feeling/emotion instead of keeping it in perspective and evenly distributed.
i've put all my energy into a sport i love but without balance i miss out on other life opportunities and/or incorrectly prioritize and fail in love and life. i spoke with a friend (sprout) who plays derby out of state today (day 17) and she shared with me that she just went on a a mini vacation to yoga workshops/meditate. she spoke to me about how important it is to find balance in derby and life and love. i was a little jealous she got a vacation that didn't involve three games ;) but her message of taking a moment and meditate for inner reflection sunk in.
i have a lot i need to work through, who doesn't. i think we all need meditative moments daily or weekly to find balance within ourselves.
i am not giving up derby, i am by no means ready to do that, but i need to realize it is okay to miss once and it should not consume my thoughts or life...derby is a part of me but it is not all that i am......
