Yoga growth comes in millimeters. Like the seconds of sunlight added each day after the Winter Solstice. Indistinguishable at first, but then 2 seconds becomes 10 minutes which becomes 2 hours. Sunset gets later and the days get longer….gradually, but consistently. Just as the yoga millimeters that at first are just a thought, then a vision in our mind’s eye. The head gets closer to the knees or the hands closer to the earth in a fold. Our hips sink lower in a squat one millimeter at a time. We notice the distance has shifted, but we don’t know exactly when it became perceptible. It is in the showing up on our yoga mat day after day after day, just as the sun also rises.
Happy Solstice and Winter!
