Sometimes I wonder if teaching yoga is enough, whether or not I’m making a big enough difference in the world. When I hear some people say that I’m not providing substance, just yoga inspiration, it makes me really wonder whether I am doing enough. Sometimes my mind plays the comparison game and I question whether or not I’ve added a truly meaningful contribution to the planet. Sometimes it feels like I’ve just been too light and fluffy or if I haven’t done enough good deeds to check off the box of good personhood. But then I remember....

All the emails, messages and letters that I get from students all around the world from real people who tell me how I have made a difference in their lives, how they discovered yoga for the first time through my videos, how my book is their yoga bible, how my videos got them through a hard time or how my smile has brought them joy or peace.

When I think about this I realize that maybe teaching yoga is actually enough to make a valuable contribution to the planet. Maybe it’s me that hasn’t been able to take in all the love, appreciation and kindness of the people in whose lives I’ve made a difference.

I’m someone who has a tendency to remember the negative and forget the positive. If ten people say something nice and one person says something harsh, I remember the harsh. By remembering and focusing on that one negative comment it ends up growing until it feels larger than life and like it might swallow me. It takes every ounce of strength to just learn from the negative without letting it bring me into a tailspin. But, to let the love in, all that needs to happen is that I need to drop down within myself and believe that I’m worthy and that what I’m doing is good enough.

Are you like me? If so, is it possible for you, just for today, to let love win in the battle of your mind? Crush the paper dragons of hate by depriving of the one thing they thrive on—your obsessive attention to them.
