Our Dharma focus this month is tapas, the discipline, inner fire, and devotion that fuels transformation.
In yoga philosophy, tapas isn’t about pushing harder or achieving perfection. It’s about showing up; with honesty, consistency, and heart even when it’s uncomfortable. Especially then.
Sometimes that inner fire feels strong and focused. Other times, it’s barely a flicker. But it’s always there, inviting us to stay with ourselves through the changing seasons of life.
Tapas shows up in how we respond to what life hands us:
When roles shift.
When relationships evolve.
When our bodies change.
It asks:
Can we stay present?
Can we soften instead of shutting down?
Can we meet the moment as it is, not how we wish it would be?
This is why our practice matters.
Not just on the yoga mat, but in how we live, how we breathe, how we hold ourselves when things fall apart or come back together.
Yoga teaches us that transformation isn’t always loud. Sometimes it’s subtle. It might look like staying steady in a pose, or it might look like letting go of who we thought we had to be.
This month, together we practice tending the fire within gently, consistently, without forcing.
Let your own transformation light the way forward.
