Liberate Your Life!
|
As many of you know, I volunteer with the Orange County Probation Department teaching yoga to a group of boys in juvenile detention. Right from the start I tell them the purpose of yoga is "Moksha," meaning freedom and liberation.
They are initially confused; they don't get the concept of being free while being locked up. By the end of class, however, they clearly understand that while their physical body can be locked up, their mind and spirit can not Why? Because they've had the direct experience of freedom through yoga. If teens in jail can experience freedom, what's stopping you?
Even though you may be free to come and go as you please,
if you're not experiencing mental, emotional and spiritual freedom in all areas of your life,
you are in bondage. You're a slave to your fears, expectations,
and the "shoulds" we put on ourselves. We run around like headless chickens trying to achieve what exactly? My teacher Saul David Raye says that if your life fits into your day planner, you're in trouble! Life doesn't fit into a day planner, and it doesn't always work out the way that we think it should. That doesn't mean that it's anything less than perfect. When you can see perfection in the midst of an imperfect world, you transend ego consciousness and move into the realm of moksha, liberation. With it comes freedom to be exactly who and what you are in this moment.
The practice of yoga enables us to experience our essential nature, which is bliss. The peacefulness that we experience at the end of a yoga class is indicative of how our life can be, day in and day out. We can experience liberation from our fears, worries and the concerns of modern day life simply by turning in to our inner being.
Take a moment to check in with yourself to see where you feel free and where you are in bondage. Just by bringing your awareness to your current life situation without judgment and criticism starts you on the road to freedom. Choose to be free from worry and fear once and for all!
Namaste,
Debbie |
