Relationships with others are beautiful and can help us grow as a person. Your partner becomes a mirror for our own actions and they can help us see better. They are a spark and a cheerleader for us even when it’s raining in the dark.
Relationships are as unique as the people involved and they come in many forms. They include partners, lovers, parents, friends, students, teachers, colleagues, pets, family, kids. When there is a continuous energy exchange between people, a relationship is born.
It’s a scientific fact that the only thing constant in life is change. Our relationships will also change. We change. I am not the same person I was 10 years ago or even last year. People pass away or change directions. What happens when a relationship changes?
I’ve been studying yoga philosophy and it helps to open the heart. When we realize that getting rid of something that hurts or doesn't feel good isn't always the answer, we learn how to heal it. How to sit with it. How to be with it. We can’t control much on the outside. We can practice directing the mind. We can learn how to steer our mind to anchor in a safe, prosperous and loving place.
Most people are looking for peace, love, happiness and joy but change can bring uncertainty, discomfort, pain, fear, excitement, nervousness and so much more. Life is a reminder that peace and harmony come from within. Two people can watch the same movie and have different interpretations. Notice the quality of your thoughts and how you perceive the world. We can practice directing the mind to a place where we can feel grounded, safe and stay positive.
Change always brings in something new. Releasing something will make space for something else. Letting go is how we learn to evolve. Change isn’t easy but it’s what it is.
As much joy we experience from living our life with others, we must fulfill our own life. That’s where the relationship we build with our own mind is important. The most important relationship we will ever have in our lifetime is with our own self - mind, body and soul.
The more we can be ourselves without fear of judgement, abandonment, heartbreak, the deeper connection we create between our mind, body and soul. The deeper we believe in our god given gifts and talents, we happily share more of them.
