Thought For Today - 4/11/10













I often tell students during class that their Yoga mat is a mirror. The things that are going on in their lives turn up on their mats. It can take some time for them to see the suffering and challenging they are going through is caused by their thoughts about the world and life, rather than the love of God.

There will be a length of time of letting go of these thoughts. But stay the course, stay on your mat! If you want the outside to change, you are going to have to change your inside - your thinking. More to the point, we will have to change and get rid of the chronic fears, prejudices and desires just to name a few.

I have used my personal Yoga mat many times to see the situation(s) in my life in action and to apply the principles of Yoga to overcome them. You too, can do the same.:)


Much love,
Joseph
