So the thing I’ve been working with in my practice lately is – how do I CONSCIOUSLY blend what I learn on the mat and in meditation with my everyday, busy bee life? So often, we get into these lovely nirvana spaces in our practice, but when we roll up the mat, we roll up our consciousness as well. So how is it that we integrate it all into feeding the dog, cooking for our family, cleaning the home? Here are some ways I’ve observed my consciousness blending into modern reality in recent weeks, in the hopes it will help you too.
Take that yoga mind with you everywhere you go. I noticed that as soon as I forgot about my yoga in a moment of anger or irritation, all of my “commitment” to a yogic frame of mind went, you know, somewhere where the sun doesn’t shine. Most of the time, I figured out, it was when I was running late or feeling stressed. So I said to myself, how do I bring that little reminder to act like a yogi into the forefront of my mind?
