Ep 22 The Holy Ruby Mine Inside: Self-Love and Not-Enoughness

In this episode, I explore the understanding of self-love in contrast to the story of not-enoughness. Often, we tell ourselves stories about our worthiness, about what we deserve, what we are capable of, what is good enough. Often, those stories have us falling short. We forget that there is a mine full of holy rubies inside of us, waiting to be excavated. Today, I take the take the time to ask questions that might bring awareness to the stories we’ve long told ourselves that, up until now, have gone unquestioned. What patterns have we ingrained into our brains? Into our bodies? How can we let those stories go and create new neural pathways for stories that allow for self-love to emerge from those layers of illustion (also known as maya)? And then can we ask: who are we BEING? And HOW are we being? Can we be the person we’ve always wanted to be simply by BEING it? Consider how these questions can not only create awareness but also expand one’s perspective of life! // Poems in today’s episode: Hafiz’s “Don’t Die Again” and Rumi’s “Polishing the Mirror” // BIPOC-centered yoga & meditation classes every Sunday starting THIS Sunday, June 28, 2020 @ 5:30p ET at Onyx Yoga Studio in Warren – both in-person/outdoors AND live-stream.
