It’s Called Practice

Yoga practice. Studio practice. Meditation practice.

It helps that the word practice is used in these. It softens the edges for these seriously hard tasks. I returned this morning to my meditation practice, after a couple of weeks away, where summer break had besieged my household. Through yoga, the art studio, and meditation, I have surrendered a particular level of judgement. I have peace with myself now, larger acceptance and understanding, and that ripples out into my experience with others. Certainly, my judgements can spew fast and hard, but the recovery is much swifter now than before. I am practicing.
