In the next series of blogs we will explore why your yoga practice is very much like a pencil. Can a pencil really inspire us? Discover five qualities of a pencil than can change your view of this simple writing instrument. Write Read on! *
First Quality:
You are capable of great things. There is a hand guiding your steps.
A pencil can do nothing until a hand picks it up, holds it, and writes with it. The pencil is a tool and the hand uses the tool to do great things. Yoga also is a tool that you can use to do great things for your body, for your mind, and for your spirit.
Having a guiding hand to help you is important on your journey. It is still the best way to start a new practice. So in the beginning of your journey, finding a teacher to help guide you can be very important. Be it that hands-on adjustment, a little verbal instruction, or exploring yoga at a deeper level, finding a teacher is useful in helping guide you on your path of greatness.
But, at the same time, always remember – you are always your own best teacher. Make sure you honor your own limits and find your own path to your journey. Listen to your own inner voice.
This is a good reminder for anything you’re trying to learn, not just yoga. Thanks!
