Subtle Shifts in the Journey of Life

by Sonya on July 23, 2009

Funny how in a split second everything can change…sometimes it’s into something truly beautiful and sometimes it’s into something we least expect and not so pretty.

The only thing that is constant is the shifting of our lives. Being aware of those shifts is part of yoga. Living in the awareness that everything is constantly shifting and moving and being aware of the subtle ways that energy moves both inside and outside of our bodies is preparation for anything that life throws our way.

That is the depth of yoga.

When you can feel your body open in new ways, you go a little deeper into who you are…your body naturally begins to tune into your spirit. Your physical body becomes lighter and the cells and muscles and bones begin to streamline into alignment and the energy begins to move in the same direction as your spirit and when that happens, you progress…your very being shifts into a new awareness and new body and new depth of understanding.

You are changing from the inside out – the most powerful kind of change there is.

It is absolutely beautiful. It is akin to being filled up and overflowing with the warmth of the sun.

That’s when your intentions change. You move from the consciousness of  “I” into the idea that we are all truly connected and that your actions (or lack of action), thoughts, words, deeds all have an impact. Your understanding deepens and your heart opens.

Changes and shifts are a part of the journey of life. Yoga is the awareness of the shifts and what they mean and how they impact us all.
