Whoa, vata! 💨🌪🍂 The season shift is feeling joyful, but definitely floaty-swirly. I’m looking up at the sky more often, and sometimes feeling a little like you do when utkatasana has you farther back on your heels than you can manage. 😂😂😂 That’s got me thinking about the way we hold ourselves, and how much it does or doesn’t matter what’s holding us— a floor, a glass wall, a strong wind, an extended leg, a hand, a community. 🦵🏽🖐🏾 After chilling here for a good minute, I glanced down behind me for a quick peek at the traffic below and jolted myself right outta the pose. ⚡️⚡️⚡️ I knew the street was below, had seen it previously, and could hear it all the while. But that look, that shift of the drishti jangled me anew. In that moment I didn’t trust the glass that had supported me up to that moment. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ It was funny. I laughed at myself. In the swoosh of gusty autumn I hope we can all laugh often and with much self-compassion as balance becomes increasingly and playfully challenged. 🍁🍁🍁 #yogafalling #vataseason #autumnapproaches #trustyourself #laughoften
