Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; for it becomes your destiny. -- Upanishads

In SAVASANA - Let go of control

Do you notice how your life and your days are mostly under your control? You control your choices, food, drink, activity, conversations, and sometimes your emotions. There are some things that are of course out of your control (rain!) - but for the most part - you are IN CONTROL.
Doesn't that feel CONSTRICTING sometimes?
Then - what happens when you lose control - something comes along unexpected and you lose it - REALLY lose it? Not so good.
The great news is in the YOGA room! On your yoga mat!
SAVASANA.
You can step out of the drivers seat - and lose control. Surrender effort. Enjoy the scenery in the backseat.
SAVASANA Is your SANCTUARY from the constricting prison of CONTROL.
You open up like an extended palm. Like a flower opening to the sun. Like someone in love.
Go ahead - use Savasana as your vacation from control.
Ahhhhhhhh. Feels good.
Peace
