I didn't want to go to yoga last night, no bone in my body wanted to, which isn't like me. But I went. It's a non negotiable in my week, a day where I don't need to decide, it just is and has been for years. I arrived and set myself up at the back, I wanted to drop into the background, to go unseen. I modified some of the practice and pushed other parts when it felt good. I got upside down, I flipped my perspective and it cleared my head, which has been overspilling for a while now. I got home and felt more at ease, I slept better and I had more motivation for a new day.
The practice doesn't need to be perfect, it's perfect for you on that day. Because as Pip Roberts often says, drawing on Tantrik yoga philosophy "we are perfect and ever-evolving".
And the key, it's for you always!
Something Beth Mason - Online Fitness Coach for Women 40+ helped me do when I worked with Beth is plan your non negotiables, so you don't get decision fatigue, your not deciding, it is booked in, it's happening and you won't regret it. Creating a base line plan that supports you, providing you with a system that is going to increase your energy, increase your capacity and shift your base line happiness. Each Sunday night I plan my week out but I already know I am going to yoga and the benefits it brings for me.
What are your non negotiable? How do you feel when you don't commit to yourself and your practice? How do you feel when you do? 🫶🏼🌀✨️
