“Our teachers gift us tools, then it is our job to practice using them. Knowledge without application doesn’t do much. Learning what to do with these tools requires deep internal work and self-compassion. I’m still sifting through the dust and old stories that were stirred up by the learning process. Trying to slowly chip away at the illusions my ego has created while simultaneously reminding myself that this whole process doesn’t happen all at once. My teachers talk a lot about yoga being the practice that allows us to overcome the obstacle of the mind in order to awaken us to our true nature. As I am stumbling/walking this path I hope to link arms with others that are trying to do the same. After all, regardless of what self-actualization practice we choose, we’re all on this journey home together.”
