🌿✨ Your Power is Revealed Through the Challenge ✨🌿
Yoga Sutra 1:30 Vyādhi styāna samśaya pramādālasyāvirati bhrāntidarśanālabdha-
bhūmikatvānavasthitatvāni cittaviksepāste'ntarāyāh.
“Disease, dullness, doubt, carelessness, laziness, sensuality, false perception, failure to reach firm ground and slipping from the ground gained— these distractions of the mind-stuff are the obstacles.”
There will be days when the fire dims — when doubt creeps in, motivation fades, and the mind leans toward comfort, distraction, or even pride in past progress. This is not failure. This is part of the path.
On the journey of yoga, it’s common to rise… and then slip. To feel inspired… and then dull. This is the nature of the mind.
These moments of tamas — inertia, lethargy, carelessness — are not signs to quit, but signs to awaken. Like a river held back by a dam, your full power is often revealed only when you meet resistance.
Yoga is an obstacle race — designed not to defeat you, but to strengthen you. Your setbacks are sacred. Your struggles are shaping you. The ground may shake beneath you, but your inner Self is unshakable. 🕉️
Keep showing up. Not perfectly — but honestly.🧘♂️
