Just wanted to tickle you to today and invite you to join me in bringing back into sacred balance the blend of stillness and movement in your life. Why is it so difficult to strike a balance between stillness and movement? As humans we fall into habits so easily. What is your pattern or tendency? I’ve outlined here 4 categories with examples in each one, so that you can visit where you are imbalanced and join me engaging some of these less-visited practices to bring balance, harmony and energy back into your life.

In which of these four do you tend to spend most of your time and which do you neglect?

Busy body & busy mind: physical tasks, competitive sports, running errands

Busy body & still mind: yoga (when staying present), some sports like jogging, dance

Still body & busy mind: office & computer work, writing, art, reading, jou
aling, games

Still body & still mind: meditation, baths, watching the sunset, stargazing, massage, napping

All of these in different forms are valuable to experience in balance. I am sure you have others to add to each category. Since I have recently been experiencing lots of computer work, yesterday, I brought in more meditation, napping, stargazing and massage. By the end of the day I felt so relaxed, nourished and recharged. Today, I added movement with stretching, dance and yoga. My energy is revitalized and my mind is clear! Balance feels great. Check this out this exercise and see where you can bring more balance to your life.
