Happy Sunday, everyone! I hit a new PR (personal record) today and added 5 seconds to my plank. I'm now up to 1:35 seconds total!
Homework Assignment #4
Write a statement to reread whenever you feel afraid of all the change that will happen as a result of the changes you are making.
I was inspired by a Buddhist quote and will make sure to reference this statement when there arises fear amidst the inevitable changes that will happen in my life. It feels very applicable these days...
“…feelings like disappointment, embarrassment, irritation, resentment, anger, jealousy, and fear, instead of being bad news, are actually very clear moments that teach us where it is that we’re holding back. They teach us to perk up and lean in when we feel we’d rather collapse and back away. They’re like messengers that show us, with terrifying clarity, exactly where we’re stuck. This very moment is the perfect teacher, and, lucky for us, it’s with us wherever we are.”
~ Pema Chödrön
