Summer turns into fall and winter, spring and
summer again. From a positive swing, we fall
into a negative one, then to come back to the
positive swing again. We can’t force the cycle
to stop.
There’s a myth that those who do yoga are
always balanced and positive. But doing yoga
can’t guarantee that you have a good mood all
the time. No. Our bodies accumulate lots of
negative emotions, and it takes time to release
them.
Sometimes we do the practice and feel great
the whole day, sometimes we do the very same
things and feel down. And it’s normal. But
what’s important is not to intensify the
negative emotions. And we do it often when
we pay too much attention to our mood
swings.
Remember, where the attention goes, the
energy follows. So, when we let ourselves dive
deep into something unpleasant, we empower
the painful experience, we prolong it, and we
risk to slip into a depressive state for days,
weeks, and months.
