What arises is the path

I received this “Heart Advice” from a Pema Chödrön email yesterday and it grabbed my attention immediately. “Whatever happens to you, to me, to anyone, is either the beginning of liberation or the means to attain liberation, or the means to deepen confusion. Anything that happens to us has that absolute, wide-open, co-emergent potential to either deepen the confusion or to liberate us. I think that’s pretty powerful.” I agree with Pema that this is pretty powerful. It helps me remember that all of the things that arise in our lives and our response to them create our path. We have so much more choice than we often realize. Not about what happens to us, but how we respond.

Mercury in retrograde ends tomorrow, but its shadow will last a few more days. Have patience with yourself and those around you as we find our footing again.

I look forward to seeing you this weekend for Saturday Morning Yoga from 8:30-10:00 as we pause, listen to our bodies, and care for them with lovingkindness. The next two Saturdays (10/7 & 15) I will not be teaching live classes as we’ll be visiting our boys and attending some college football games. Previous recordings of Saturday Morning Classes as well as Evening Chair Yoga are available on my Youtube channel.

May you be safe, may you be happy, may you be healthy, may you live with ease. ❤️ ~ Lisa
