"Finding yourself" is not really how it works. You aren't a ten-dollar bill in last winter's coat pocket. You are also not lost. Your true self is right there, buried under cultural conditioning, other people's opinions, and inaccurate conclusions you drew as a kid that became your beliefs about who you are. "Finding yourself" is actually returning to yourself. An unlearning, an excavation, a remembering who you were before the world got it's hands on you." ~ Emily McDowell
I've been doing Yoga With Adriene for almost a year now, and like I've said in this space before, it has truly been life changing. In addition to strength and flexibility, it has been an amazing journey of remembering myself. Doing yoga is precious time that I carve out for me each morning, a time to love and honor myself. A phrase Adriene often uses is "Breathe lots of love in, and lots of love out." And I think that is just exactly what the world needs right now, lots of love!
We truly do need more love.
