You Are an Expression of the Universe — There Are No Mistakes Here

We practice to be better at life — not to perfect the practice itself. But sometimes we forget that.Sometimes I think we forget that we are human, and we get so focused on our practices and trying to be more connected spiritually or better at our modality — as a practitioner, student or teacher — that we lose sight of the real reason we show up. You get to be a better human being. You get to become a better version of yourself in your day to day life. It doesn't mean you will always be regulated or that things won't bother you anymore, but you become better at taking a pause before you react.You are worthy of that compassion. On the hard days especially — that is when you lean into your practice even more. The worst thing you can do is shelve it or believe it isn't working. Keep showing up. Try again. You are an expression of the universe, and there are no mistakes here.
