Meditations from the Mat – Letting Go

April 26, 2011 //  by Christy

Some of you asked if I could type out the reading I shared this week in my classes, where our intention was using our yoga practice to let go. It is from the book Meditations from the Mat. Here it is…

“To begin, we let go. We let go of our thoughts, our old scripts, our expectations, our darkness. The solution is not to fight but to let go. We let go of everything and hold on to nothing. Over and over again, on the mat and off, we let go. This letting go is a purification…In our letting go we create an emptiness, a space that health and grace will move into.”
