I know my (very new) practice is fits and starts! <br /><br />If awareness is the true goal of our practice though, then I'm trying to comfort myself with the notion that even if my practice doesn't 'rock' or look pretty every time, even if I don't always make it through, then so long as I notice that, and enquire as to why, and learn, acknowledge and nurture those reasons and lessons, my practice is still a 'success'. Does that make sense?<br /><br />Thank you for your honesty,I love your writing!LauraYoginihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09993181421202894914noreply@blogger.com
