Dear Yoga Mind Li Friends,
“
The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly”.
-Buddha
Mother Earth is taking a temporary break. Spring is here and nature is thriving this season. The skyline is crystal clear. Pollution is lifted. New York City smells like the countryside. I sleep with my window open at night listening to the clear and soft sounds of nocturnal nature.
In the morning, I wake up to the sound of the birds harmonizing outside.
And every noon, there is a festivity of wildlife that emerges from greenery. I have never seen nature as such before in NY.
It feels like mother nature is truly happy. Let's slow down, take good care of ourselves, and our loved ones. This isn’t a tornado that passes through quickly. This global issue teaches us a powerful lesson that will stay until we understand the message. These hard times bring us closer to ourselves. Hold on tightly to the divine, pray, meditate. Spend some quiet time with yourself.
The news can be hypnotizing. There are a million messages coming to us all at once. But the best messages come from within.
Quietly with myself, in meditation and prayer, I feel peace, readiness for all that’s coming. Let’s use this time to pray, rest, and dream of new ways to improve our life. This can serve as the quiet we haven’t had in a long time...
I can find wisdom and beauty if we slow down. I pray that we all overcome our individual challenges in these harrowing times.
If you are having a hard time, please reach out!
I have so much help and technology to connect us both even if we are physically distant.
Looking forward to seeing you soon on your mat!
