What if contentment–or even better happiness–could come from the pleasure of just being present? What if that pleasure could result in you not caring if life was unpleasant or not? Imagine in turn you became confident knowing that no matter what was showing up in your life, whether it be easy or uncomfortable you could BE in the moment of either.

For example, when you find yourself saying the weather is “too hot” or “too cold”, consider instead if you can just feel what you feel and not jump to a label or conclusion.

This week in my yoga classes we will explore this concept as we dive deep into the labeling we do as humans. We will look and practice how often we think or speak words like good, bad, hot, cold, hard, easy. We will think about the possibility of instead learning to lean into what it feels like to just BE in whatever is showing up.
