Our theme of the month is COMPASSION ♥️✨⁠ ⁠ We asked @fabfabeyoga what compassion means to him 💫⁠ ⁠ "Compassion used to not be existent in my life. When I used to work in an ER, we knew that as part of our work culture, we had to cut that out of our life so we wouldn’t crumble under the pressure or emotions thrown at us. Removing myself from that culture, I began to understand compassion and live it. ⁠ Most importantly, I learned to have compassion for myself. I am kinder to myself when I’m tired and I rest whereas before I had to make sure I did my long lost of things to do or I would beat myself for not doing them. When faced with something emotional, I know I have to take personal time to process what Im feeling where before I used to bury my emotions away and they would come up in irrelevant situations. ⁠ Doing these things for myself has taught me to better listen to others and make them feel heard. Being heard is incredibly powerful for someone that needs it and they let you know how grateful they are for it. It is the simplest thing we can do to show compassion."⁠ ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ ⁠ #compassion #wordofthemonth #yoga #yogi #asana #yogaclass #yogapractice #rayoga #rayogastudios #breatheinlight #findyourdirection #meditate #orangecounty #LBX⁠ #yogaflow ⁠#meditation #vinaysa ⁠ ⁠ ⁠
