{Noticing thoughts is the key. In yoga we begin to notice our thoughts. Thoughts become words, words become behaviors, behaviors become habits and habits become values. In yoga we choose to value non-judgment. The first tenant of yoga is to do no harm. Passing judgment is harmful because that energy of criticism lives in you. It affects you. When you judge someone it defines you not the other person. If you feel you can easily comment on others, chances are you are also well versed in judging yourself. Feelings of insecurity and unworthiness create the biggest bullies and the saddest souls. 🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅 In yoga we come into the present moment by yoking movement with conscious breath. We consciously observe and release feelings and fears of the past and future. The internal voice quiets and only is replaced with an inner guru. In this space you are able to observe yourself, neutrally acknowledge and accept what is, thereby coming into balance. In the silence of the present moment we find a deep appreciation for all that is. Our heart smiles from within. Within this joy there is no room for judgment. The best thing? This practice of non-judgment can be taken on and off your yoga mat. It is free. It is simple. It is necessary! 🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅 Awesomely RAD leggings by @werkshop ••• #Yoga #ElinoreCohenYoga #PureFlowYoga #IntentionIsEverything #Werkshop #TeamWerkshop} via Instagram http://ift.tt/1nFDTgq
