I've been in a really dark spot recently, and it reminds me that no matter how positive, self loving and passionate we can be - there is a darkness too and it is also beautiful. Not hurting is easier, and to be honest I think I put feeling a lot of these feelings off for quite some time. But just like #ustrasana in yoga, it's important to open your chest, let it pour out, to be vulnerable, to feel wounded, to be raw, maybe unpleasant for a little while. This is how we grow, resisting the darkness only breeds stagnation. A lot of the darkness centered around feeling like I haven't done enough, like it's too late and that I've tried too hard, and accomplished too little. Too much? My point is, feel what you need to feel and don't apologize for it. THAT is how I feel in all honesty, and I'm not afraid to share it. Ps. When I look at this photo the amazing @rachaelleephoto took of me, I am reminded of my power. So that's good. 💪#livecleankitchen #livecleankitchenyoga #camelpose #honestthoughts #trustyourstruggle #painhasapurpose (at Westport, California)

This. This. Human. Simple answers are not my thing - I always see the counterpoints to every negative and positive. I never know the “right” choice because I see the nuance, the complexity, the uncertainty. But here’s the thing - not making a choice gets you nowhere and making the safe, responsible choice gets you security (sometimes 10000% necessary) but taking the risk, diving in despite the fear - it’s not the simple answer, it’s not the clearest path but it makes life rich and diverse and interesting. Why not try? Why not follow that quiet call to something greater? Why not lean into life no matter what it may bring?
