Your last two posts and Kathleen’s comment have made me think (in a kind of Carrie Bradshaw type of way) – “Do we try too hard?”

Do we try too hard to be good yogis (whatever that means), to the point where we are losing our true identities? Like you I can be obsessive, I can definitely catastrophise (you wouldn’t believe the crazy situations I make up in my head), and I try so hard to do good deeds, think good thoughts and then beat myself up when I fail. Whereas really, I am only human and I can only do the best I can.

I think you and Kathleen’s quote may have inspired a blog post :)

Love and oms

Rachel

So true.
Have a great week!
