BEFORE MONDAY BEGINS.
The first step is simply to look.
Sunday evening.
The week behind you.
The week ahead.
Somewhere between them is a pause.
Geetaji Iyengar said:
“The first step in yoga is to look at yourself.
Not to imitate anyone else.
Your body, your breath, your mind—
this is your laboratory.”
Not to judge.
Not to fix.
Not to plan.
To look.
What held you this week?
What unsettled you?
What did you carry that was never yours to carry?
The practice does not ask you to be different on Monday.
It asks you to be honest on Sunday.
So before the new week begins, and before the list of things to do starts growing, pause and ask:
What is one thing I can leave here—not carry into Monday?
