Hello love,

Have you ever traveled to an elephant sanctuary? While these sites can serve as peaceful refuges for elderly, orphaned, or previously captive pachyderms, they can also be rife with metaphors for human psychology.
 
What could captive elephants and YOU possibly have in common?
 
Let me explain.
 
When a baby elephant is born in captivity, a trainer ties one end of a rope around one of their ankles and the other end to a stake in the ground, giving the elephant a radius the length of the rope. Until a captive elephant is rescued, her entire life exists within the small circle she can walk around her stake.
 
As the elephant grows, she becomes patterned to believe that her entire world exists within that radius. After a while, even if the rope is untied from the stake, the elephant will continue to pace inside her original radius.
 
She never ventures outside that circle. She doesn't even know she can. 
 
So, what does this horribly sad anecdote have to do with you?
 
Ask yourself: how often do you wake up in the morning and metaphorically tie a rope around your ankle?
 
We do this to ourselves with our limiting beliefs.
 
Through mindfulness, we can transform that limiting patterning into expansive awakening. That's what Shut Up & Sit is talking about all week.

If you are ready to untie the rope, our online community-based course might be the next right step in your mindfulness journey. It’s open now!
