The promise of yoga is power.
The kind of power that frees you from the suffering that comes with the drama of the routine rise and fall... and the unexpected.
Speaking of all things unexpected, the deepest potency of practice only reveals itself when the deep moments of desperation knock on the doors of our routine realities.
These times of fraught and worry and sorrow— they come uninvited, though they should never be unexpected.
And, in these moments, when all manner of hell and high water come a-knockin’, only then are we given the chance to open the door— and, such as it is when it comes to self discovery, we discover that no matter what door we open, it’s just us on the other side.
Every door, every time.
And through yoga, we learn to stay lifted. To let that door open and close. To not fear the knocking.
And we learn how to help others stay lifted, too.
