In my Yoga teacher training, we practice self-reflection more than I can say I ever done anything else before. Yesterday's reflection was about how seemingly anytime I attempt to do things for myself, I'm met with the tiniest of obstacles or distractions that then become prioritized over my need for self-expression. The spaces I create for stillness always seem to be disrupted by a phone notification, an urge/compulsion to "do" rather than be, or I come across something that I had put off for a while. This episode offers a practice I'm implementing moving forward to stop indulging in the extreme of taking care of needs, to more time to create space for stillness.
