It’s interesting what happens when you take a moment to let go, and you find exactly what you’re looking for.

The other night, I was really frustrated, as walked around looking for a special Kirtan at one of the yoga studios here in Chiang Mai. I walked in a circle for about an hour. Followed the signs, but nothing was there, nothing was there, nothing. was. there.

I eventually gave up and headed to the park to do a practice. I discovered a new pose that I had never tried before. It just organically came to me. I was working on balance. It encouraged breath, it encouraged me to CALM DOWN, it encouraged me to focus…

Every time I stood in this pose, I fell. But! I kept trying, I kept trying, I kept trying. Within in an hour, I felt much more grounded, much more calm. I practiced with rooting heels down, rooting my hands, I finished with some flying, some handstands. But then I just…took it down. Found that balance pose.

I finally calmed down, got it taken care of. I felt better.
