Restorative practice in the middle of a very hectic day. Days like this, when I can physically feel the blood coursing through my veins at a higher pace than normal, when my heart beats to the rhythm of my smart phone, when my breath carries oxygen only to the few parts of my body that are needed for sitting up straight in meetings and in front of the computer... I stop. I stop. I stop. There is a way to use this high level energy for something else. Something other than organizing, booking, planning and juggling one million things at once. Something far more important. I can use this high energy day, this work, this stress, to remind me of what is actually true.
I retreat to my yoga mat where I spend a solid hour moving so slowly I do not break a single drop of sweat, where the only thing that matters is the breath and how in moves through my lungs, where nothing else matters and everything is silent. I come here, and I remind myself that THIS is where life happens. This is it. It's in this breath. Not in that email, that phone call, that feeling of "getting things done". It's not in the mind. It's in the body, and far beyond. It's here, now, under my mango tree, in Paschimottanasana. It's walking the dogs. It's bringing my boyfriend lunch. It's in love. I can allow myself to move into a faster pace of day to day living but I can never, ever allow myself to lose this. So thank you, stress, for reminding me of this most important truth. You just made my day.
