When we grab hold of the breath and center our mind on it, it will eventually draw our awareness inside to the heart.

The theme of my yoga class 10-16-11

The workshop from a renowned yoga teacher that I just went which I expected to be awesome turned out to be (to me) deeply disappointed.

I vividly remembered myself sat in a big room with 300 something people, listened to the information he shared and kept writing down on my notepad, What was the point about this information? Why did he share this kind of the information? For what?

I couldn’t help but felt really irritated because a lot of information he shared wasn’t something (to me) that universally valid. The more I listened the more I heard negative thouhgts in my head, and things started to feel very unhealthy in my body, a lot of contraction, aches, and pains.  When I noticed what was happening in my body, I immediately made a skillful choice to embrace the first principle of Aunsara, open to Grace, open to possibilities of more enhancing attitude, more enhancing point of view toward myself and the situation. I always use a question to safe myself, I asked to the universe “What is it about this experience that I can remember the highest of who I am, that I can remember the beauty life, that I can be supported to grow and be the person I’m here to be?”  Sure enough it’s work, I could bring myself to the place of happiness and peace with the situations.

(Theme) What is it for you? How many times you find yourselves in the situations that you wish you don’t run into? And you know when you are in them, how bad they make you feel. But guys they are the best lessons for us to practice being the best for ourselves. No matter how dark or unpleasant situations are, we can always open to see the light and the brighter side of life if we really really really want it.

There is always a choice

Gorgeous Gratitude in Action – 2

I came across a video of a deaf girl at the age of 29 who received a hearing implant.  Right at the moment when she heard her own voice for the first time, she was overwhelmed will the happiness and the happy tear just couldn’t stop coming out.

Once, someone asked the Dalai Lama what surprises him most. His responses

“Man”

He’s continuing to say that

Man lives as if he is never going to die, and then he dies and having never really lived.

We unconsciously take so many amazing things in our lives for granted.  We spend so much time counting our misfortunes instead our blessings.

The experience of gratitude from others like this video to me, just to shake myself back to the moment and remember to stay inspired and be motivated with things, people, books, situations….etc. Then let go of anything that are darkening my brightness, happiness.

The greatest regret in my life will be when I lie down on my bed for the last day of my life, then “I wish I get to do that thing or I wish I didn’t do that thing.”

 May we all remember to carefully have our 5 senses, taste, touch, sound, smell, sight are tuning into what keep us motivated and inspired. May we all remember to count our blessings when (we believe) we are in the most devastated situations? If we look hard enough, we will see them.
