HABITUAL PRACTICE
ASHTANGA YOGA: 7:30pm – 8:30pm, 03.09.2008, Wednesday
Habitual Practice
Years ago, there was a research completed by a group of scientists on the study of duration and formation of habits in human’s life. Various types of habits with different amount of time were instilled into human’s daily life to enable the compilation of collective data. The data shows that in order to develop a habit in our lives, it takes us about 40 days to do so. That is the reason how we get the concept of “40 days Affirmation” to carry out a plan.
Likewise, if you want to foster yoga training as part of your life, there are a few points that we need to access first. Will you allow yourself to set a strong will of cultivating this yoga practice in your daily life? Will you commit and honor your will by putting in time and efforts in it? If you have “Yes” for both questions, “Vola!” you are on the right track.
Most of the people today, they tend to plan out plenty of ideas in their minds which is normally a good thing. But the point is they just simply think, they do not honor their brilliant ideas or thoughts by putting them down into action. We have to admit the fact that ideas are just thought forms if we do not settle them down with proper planning and direction. And of course, they could easily vanish in the air without giving you any notice.
So, it is time to honor your yoga practice by setting a hot date (arranging time schedule and environment) with your yoga mat and your body.
Honor your ideas, Namaste.
