Theme: Uncertain Times.

Anyone is capable of dealing with any situation as long as it is known.
It’s the uncertainty that shakes us all.

How can we ground ourselves and sit steady in moments of uncertainty?

Uncertainty reminds us of the power of being in the present moment.

We can connect with the present moment through our breath, the physical sensations of our bodies moving through and holding poses.
By paying attention to what is actually happening in our bodies and also in our minds, we can anchor ourselves down.

In the present moment, the past doesn’t matter. The future doesn’t matter either.

When everything feels wobbly and unstable while holding a pose, maybe you feel a little bit overwhelmed?
You might be losing concentration?
You might feel like your body is out of control and resists being adjusted?

A similar thing can happen in our real life situations.
When we are in the midst of chaos and uncertainty, we tend to feel overwhelmed, disoriented, confused, and lost.
To keep moving forward is to bring our attention to here and now.

Stop. Take breaths. Observe and assess. Then proceed.

Uncertainty brings us an opportunity to re-discover and re-commit to our core beliefs and values, and deeper intentions as well.

We’re learning to stay steady and find calmness in moments of uncertainty through balance poses. Modifications are always available.
