Don’t Act with a Twist

Reflection:

In today's meditation class with Pat at Studio Be online, she emphasized surrendering and using meditation as a filter to clean out the debris from life. This perspective is invaluable in untwisting our actions. As a student of mindfulness and meditation, having a mentor like Pat has been instrumental in helping me uncover and navigate through this debris. Her guidance and insights have helped me see more clearly the ways in which our motivations may be self-serving. Through the lens of mindful surrender, I am continually learning to identify and untangle these hidden agendas, allowing for more authentic and compassionate actions.

As a yoga teacher, meditation guide, and mindfulness practitioner, I find these reflections crucial. They help ensure that my actions are not tainted by hidden agendas. Authenticity in our actions creates genuine connections and fosters true compassion. When we untwist our motivations, we free ourselves from the entanglements of ego and self-interest, allowing for a purer expression of compassion and kindness. Let's keep asking these tough questions, digging deep to ensure that our actions align with our values and serve the greater good.

Reflect mindfully and act with clarity. At least try, that’s all we can do as long as we are living our precious lives.
