Remember that we are looking to find that manageable, challenging place.
We need to extend ourselves for a greater good or possibility. If we do not do this, then we are in decline, making our world smaller.
But if we do reach into this courageous mindset, then we step into a world of positive possibility.
Being courageous might be:
Trying something for the first time
Turning up on my mat to practice on a day that I really don’t feel like it
Making a commitment to my practice, and telling another human being to make myself accountable to it
Extending my breath in some way, length of breath or depth of breath
Increasing the number of repetitions of my Tibetan exercises
Increasing the effort or reach within my movements
Working my practice with full focus with no distractions
Telling someone a difficult truth
Being accountable and accepting my own part in disputes & problems
These are just a few examples. Being courageous is about stepping a bit outside our comfort zone. But if we take a giant leap, then we might just be being stupid and end up getting hurt! Its a fine balance!!
Wishing you love and happiness.
