Happy New Year! The Winter Season is time for rest and reflection. ✨

Lately, I’ve been spending time with the very beginning of the Yoga Sūtras. Sutra 1.2 lays out the promise of yoga.

योगश्चित्तवृत्तिनिरोधः

1.2 Yogaḥ citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ

Patañjali tells us that yoga is the settling of the fluctuations of the mind. He then adds in Sutras 1.3 and 1.4 something simple yet powerful: when the mind settles, we rest in our true nature. And at other times… we identify with our thoughts, emotions, and inner stories.

What I love is how closely this mirrors so many modern practices and therapeutic approaches, the idea that we all have different inner voices or patterns, and that healing doesn’t come from getting rid of them, but from changing our relationship to them.

Yoga isn’t asking us to silence the mind or fix ourselves. It’s inviting us to notice when we’re caught up and to gently come back to the part of us that can observe and get curious about whatever’s arising.

For me, this shifts yoga from something we do to something we remember. That remembering becomes a practice we can return to, again and again, both on and off the mat.

One of my favorite quotes from Pema Chodron helps me to remember: “You are the sky. Everything else is just the weather.”

Enjoy this time of rest and reflection. Grab my free “Reflect & Renew” Workbook (link in bio) for new years intention setting at your own pace.
