Summary

"Aversion is a form of bondage. We are tied to what we hate or fear. That is why, in our lives, the same problem, the same danger or difficulty, will present itself over and over again in various prospects, as long as we continue to resist or run away from it instead of examining it and solving it." ~ Pantanjali We are living in a time of excess and extremes politically, economically, and socially. We crave a sense of semblance as we seek out a voice of unity. Discover how to find true peace and happiness within yourself. This week, you'll be exploring Moderation, from Pantanjali's Yoga Sutras. This is part of a collection of meditation series focused on honoring the way you live your life. You'll focus on moderation to help cultivate a calmer, kinder approach to the problems in the world today. This is part 7 of a 7-part Moderation meditation series with the 4th Yama Brahmacharya, episodes 2117-2123. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: You're invited to take part in a Restraint Quest where every day this week you direct your thoughts, actions, and words in a positive way to support yourself, without relying on anything outside yourself to meet your needs. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION TECHNIQUES: Affirmation - "Peace and happiness are within me." Breathing - Inhale: "Peace and happiness ..." Exhale: "... are within me."
