Let yourself be drawn by the strong pull of what you really love, it will not lead you astray. -- Rumi
A little over two years ago, I was presented with the opportunity to join in partnership to create a destination yoga teacher training company. I was inspired by the opportunity to create spaces where yoga could be not only learned, but shared as the foundation for deep connection and transformation, and so began Sama Yoga House.
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about waves and currents. Waves are what we see on the surface. They rise and fall, each coming from the same source but unique in character, shape and duration. Whereas currents are a continuous directional flow of water under the surface, and while we don’t see them, they influence entire systems both above and below the surface.

In Spring of this year, it became clear I could no longer continue partnership in Sama Yoga House, and in May I exited the business. I stayed on to lead the 300 Hour Training in Thailand in July as my final training. And so this wave of energy in my life has come to a close.
I find endings are more of a process than an event. Perhaps there is a day that papers are signed, or that a commitment is fulfilled, but the actual ending is as much a journey as the beginning.
In the OM cycle, the end is not the last sound, rather it’s the vibration that lingers and silence after. When we take time to absorb the vibration, and to honor the silence that the cycle has carved out for us, we can learn and grow from everything we do.

This ending has reminded me to trust the deeper currents in my life that always sustain, no matter what waves are happening on the surface. Investing in relationships, treasuring time with Ash, being honest with myself about my strengths and my challenges, learning from mistakes so I can grow in all of these areas, meditating and being consistent in my practice so that the insights I’m gaining in this pause can move into the next cycle. These are the currents that sustain me.
How have the 🌊 been for you lately? What are the deeper currents that sustain you? Always💙to hear your thoughts...
