Meditation for overcoming road rage

Yoga is about being present. In other words, yoga is about showing up for your life with the honest intention of doing the best that you can. Another way of thinking about this is, yoga is presence and presence simply means to be with what is as is. When you attend to what is happening you notice that the present moment, “what is,” is dynamic. Life is a precious gift delivered as the present, an always new moment. You are free to do with that gift whatever you want. Presence, Being Present, Being with what is, Mindfulness, Consciousness, Attention, Awareness. We can think about all of these words as focusing only on the task at hand; concentrating on a single activity; paying close attention to your actions; acting consciously and deliberately; to do what you are doing; being here now; conscious awareness; remaining focused on what is actually happening right where you are. A simple way to experience presence is by focusing on the breath. Feel connected to the present, as you allow yourself to feel deeply relaxed with this guided mediation.

Meditation for presence

It happens to all of us - thoughts of comparison that lower self esteem and increase self doubt. Can this chain of thoughts be broken with a simple shift in perspective? Yoga goes to show us that yes it can. True wisdom in Yoga lies in experience. My wish for you is to give yourself this opportunity to embody an experience which can end suffering caused by comparison. As I share my learnings of the Yoga practise, I go back to one of my favourite quotes on the power of presence by Yoga teacher and Author Linda Sparrowe “Yoga begins right where I am – not where I was yesterday or where I long to be.”
