There is no way we can get to a place of accepting and embracing our full Selves with one hour of [fill in the blank] per week. Instead we need consistency, patience, reverence, and ritual in the ways we learn to be in the not doing.

That's Sadhana. Sadhana means daily spiritual practice.

It's the point of yoga and meditation, because yoga is inherently about honoring your whole being - body, mind, and spirit. And, we have to cultivate this type of practice every day. Maybe not an hour everyday. Maybe it's five minutes, 20, 30.

If you want to learn to accept yourself, to find inner harmony, to release harmful thoughts and anxieties, to find safety in unknown places, to learn how to embrace rest and pleasure, and to eventually love yourself...then you need Sadhana. And no one else can give it to you, but you. Sure, there are guides, but the gift is one you learn how to cultivate.
