Ahimsa, Week 2, Balance



"Balance comes from listening to the guidance and wisdom of the inner voice. When we are in balance, we automatically live in nonviolence. Ahimsa, or nonviolence, invites us to question the feeling of powerlessness rather than accept it." "Our ability to stay balanced and courageous has much to do with how we feel about ourselves. How we treat ourselves is in truth how we treat those around us. Our inability to love and accept all the pieces of ourselves creates ripples-tiny acts of violence- that have huge and lasting impacts on others." The Yamas & Niyamas by Deborah Adele.
This week our practice is to guard our balance as we would our most precious resource. Find guidance from the messages of our body. How do you create balance in your life? What effects does balance have in your life and on others?
