Intention
Just when I was beginning to reconnect with my yoga practice again, the storm (Sandy) hit and I did not make it to yoga class for almost 2 weeks. Since I recommitted to my meditation practice this week, I decided to take a class at GSY with one of my favorite yoga teachers, Kristin Monk and it was exactly what I needed.
Kristin’s dharma talks are always spot on for me. Her recurring theme of Intention always allows me to delve a little deeper into myself. She began by sharing how sometimes we set an intention and after a while become conscious of how long it’s taking and get frustrated. She said that some intentions may take longer than others to come into fruition. This really resonated with me and was the perfect message at this moment in my life, as all of my dreams continue to unfold.
As I was moving through the poses in class, I felt a fluidity and strength that I have not noticed before… not just a physical or mental strength, but rather a solid sense of myself, of my power. For the first time, I realized see that when I pay attention to my body, when I am fully immersed in my practice, I am really grounded in who I am. There is access to a part of me that sometimes goes unnoticed when I get caught up in my day to day life.
Intention = practice, discipline, trust, faith…All these are qualities I am learning to cultivate daily.

I was feeling quite bad today up until even now. I opened up your blog and even the words you use to describe your freedom in your practice made me feel just that much better. Openness space recieve trust these are all words that even out of context make one feel a little less empty. Just because you had a barrior I know in my heart nothing will stop you. I am proud of your accomplishments thus far and how you have touched my life in ways you’ll never know.

Thanks Alex, I appreciate how you connected the idea of openness, trust and space with feeling less empty, I guess that is the shift I am experiencing and I am happy to know that my words have touched your life. We will all have bad days, but remember who you are and know that your strength and faith will pull you through…sending love and positive vibes your way…

I love this! I really love how you talked about intention and how that sometimes takes longer than we want. That really speaks to how important having faith and trust is when creating your reality. Thanks for the reminder.
