      Which challenge are you taking, and why?

      To treat myself with gentleness and love. To focus completely on this, as I go about my day.

        I have finished the above challenge and embraced another one. This one is more true to my heat, to treat myself with gentleness and love. Loving oneself has been pushed as a narcissistic way of being, but I disagree. If I don't love who I am and accept myself completely, I will fail miserably.

        So far, I am living in the moment and enjoying each day fully.

        I just finished exercising. I finished a combination Pilates, Yoga and calisthenics. I feel great!

          Hi Maria,

          I noticed one of your posts about kundalini,,,, which I just started practicing as well. It's really different and very energizing - an interesting technology. Anyway, upon reading your profile, we have a lot in common and I really enjoyed reading your profile. I am also a mom, wife, daughter, cook, etc (just not the sew/knit part). I like what you have to say about "life" and staying true to who we are, listening to ourselves, and I am also going through my own process of accepting and treating myself with kindness. I've been so hard on myself for as long as I can remember: Always trying to fix everything and everyone else, trying to please others to gain self worth; basically while I've been busy trying to save the world, I've lost myself! I just turned 34 last week and all of this just hit me like a ton of bricks. So, I too am on this path of looking inward, knowing who I really am (not what others want me to be) and loving myself without judging so harshly. Yoga has become a part of my life and has aided me in walking this new found path, reaching those great parts of me that I didn't make time to see.

          Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Just wanted to say hello to a like-minded yogi :) MYO is a neat support system for me in that way.

          Namaste,
          Beant

          Hi, Maria, I saw your post about Kundalini. It's a lot of fun. Intense, but fun. And a big hello to a fellow knitter! :) ~Suzi
