Creative Journey YOGA

Yoga is a self-discovery journey. It's a tool for life for me. Finding the way, where there is none. Hope. An anchor. In new circumstances, where unexpected happens and I do step out of my comfort zone, I learn. Always. The more often it happens, the more stable I stand. I feel grateful for such moments. ⚓

My very favourite asana is parivrtta trikonasana (revolved or twisted triangle pose). Such a simple elegant shape, but requiring so much to achieve the steady alignment, providing for deep body stretch, that I feel in return. I like simplicity. I like how it hurts sometimes. I like to find my breath and stability in it. Feet and a hand are grounded at the same time and provide me with a feeling of security. It's a nice forward bend and a balance posture at the same time due to the torso twist, where the strong core is required, too. Heart opener through the arms extension in one line, hand grounded but gazing up towards the sky.... trust the anchor created within this asana. I am focussed from the bottom to the top of my fingers, from my back heel to the top of the head working towards the body and mind calmness.

You can either assess how ordinary it looks at the first sight, or take a moment to see many layers and facettes in every aspect of life around. The choice is yours.

"Nothing and no feeling is permanent... as night changes day, so moments of joy and despair replace each other. Accept them as the nature of things, as part of life."
~Deepak Chopra~ (a quote from a tale of a 21-day abundance challenge, day 19)

This "nothing is permanent" is being reminded to me through my yoga practice... Feelings and emotions, motivation and determination, joy or sadness, weakness or strenght ... they come and go. May you stick to the courage of your heart in difficult moments and to the humbleness when being high🙏
