Resistance


ABANDONING ABANDON

Letting go of anything is tough when it's been all we know over extended periods of time. 

The summer has been fun. It's been a gift to myself to enjoy carefree abandon and enjoy having the reins off after a strict first third of the year. But now it's long overdue for a change back to a more disciplined regime. 

I can clearly remember resistance to the spring/summer mindset change back in May. I didn't want to lose my clarity and healthy regime. I didn't want to drink or have late nights. Now the reverse is happening and coming back into a tighter regime, is proving to be tough. I am experiencing resistance to a new mindset. This is normal behaviour in every change we make. It takes time to adjust and we always want to fall back on what we know and take what feels like the easier path.

Adjusting To A Yoga Way Of Being
I'm taking a level 1 yoga course at the moment. It's really starting to delve into a changing mindset as a positive move towards a more mindful and spiritual way - one that is not conducive to mix with the current party goer. 

I need to make a complete change to the new mindset if this is going to work and breakthrough these barriers of resistance if I'm going to make the necessary improvements in life. It may take more time, but knowing it has to change is a good start.
