Alongside my teacher and our intimate group of yogis, I spent the last year studying the Bhagavad Gita. Every Wednesday since January we have met, and spent hours each week reflecting, learning, and looking at ourselves. We have poured through this epic text verse by verse. has guided us through each step, using support quotes, poems, and resources to make it come even more alive. We've discussed some of the most devastating and most joyful moments in our lives and used it as an opportunity to know ourselves better.
This 10 month deep dive into the Gita has changed me, it has strengthened my relationship with God, it has been a spiritual anchor for me, and it has moved me in ways I never expected. This is only the beginning, I am excited to go through it again and again.
And what a powerful commitment it is, to pour in 100+ hours of my year, to my own spiritual journey, through this training. To connect deeper to my faith, my shraddha, my svadharma, my svadhyaya.
In the busiest year of my life, I committed to my own spiritual growth. Every Wednesday, no matter what was undone, I poured in, because this—a spiritual foundation, is the rock on which everything else is built. To build on faith, on what is never changing, will always be worthy of our time.
When I began writing this, I began sharing all of the things that have landed on my heart during this time intimately studying this text. As I began to write, I realized my learnings never ended. They are personal to me, my heart, my journey. They are to be learned and felt and experienced, not just summarized.
My invitation to you, is to lean in, to look inwards, and to open yourself up to believing. To believe in something greater than yourself and to live a life that isn't just for you. When you feel lonely or lost, look deeper. What is Faith? What do you put your faith in? When moments are impossible where do you lean? A spiritual path is not an easy one and yet it is the most fulfilling. It's terrifying, and vulnerable, it's uprooting and often requires us to see the darkest parts of our hearts. A spiritual path is all of this, and it is ultimately liberation.
