My mantra lately is balance. It's funny how sometimes when you're thinking about something, or working through something... all of a sudden you see examples and inspiration all around you. I think often what we need is sitting patiently, waiting right in front of us, or maybe just off to the side, but we're just too busy and too consumed to notice. When we slow down and make space, then things seem to magically enter, at just the right moment. Anyway... blah blah... back to the point. I've been all over the place for quite some time now. Mentally, physically, emotionally... just feeling pretty wonky. I know the reasons why, and of course, it's never just one reason, but a whole stewey mess of life. So I love it when things come along at just the right time to help, assist, aid, comfort or inspire in some way. These are only videos on the web of course, nothing life changing or revolutionary. I just think they are so entirely worth watching. Inspiring. For me, I became completely drawn in at about two minutes in on the first video. As I watched her focus, I thought, she is nowhere except right there, in that moment, on that wire, concentrating on her body, her movement, her breath and her balance. Anything else that enters in her mind in that moment will throw her off, literally. So let's just quiet our minds for a little bit and focus on that which is right in front of us, no matter what it is. I hope you enjoy these as much as I did.
Sidenote:: I will master the firefly pose in the second video, despite it's stupid name.
