You Can’t Grow Where You Don’t Sow (More from my yoga journey)

For the past month, the words “You can’t grow where you don’t sow.” have been imprinted on my heart and mind. I can’t stop thinking about them. I’ve written them in my journal, I’ve scribbled this quote in different notebooks and I’ve used it as a reminder to live my life with action-oriented intention.

About a year ago, I started putting the term “future yogi” out into the universe on my social media profiles. I was so inspired by following friends and complete strangers who shared their yogi journeys that it made me want to practice yoga. I shared my goals with friends and family and received lots of encouragement and support to go for it.

I kept talking about doing it and would go on and on about how dedicated and focused I’d be once I did it, but I still hadn’t put any action behind my goal.

Well as you know, I’ve put my money where my mouth is and I couldn’t be anymore motivated and inspired.

Yoga has really helped me get back to the core of who I am. It’s a time that I release any tension, stress or worries from my life and channel every bit of my energy to whatever intention I set before my workout. Throughout the experience of shaking, sweat, slipping on the mat, nailing a move or totally missing a move I feel alive. This is a form of my sowing.

I want to be stronger and push my yogi abilities to the max. I want to thrive! Every time I get on the mat, I’m watering my goal. As I get better I know that my seedling is growing and will eventually come into full bloom.
