Recently I had an experience of how scary it can be to express what is inside of us. Most recently I took a workshop in Santa Fe with Gail Larsen to find my true voice. Teaching yoga also helps me with this... its a balance of teaching what I have been taught and still learning from each person who shows up. Photography & writing & more recently public speaking (the scariest for me) are more ways Im growing and pushing through my limiting beliefs about myself. This fear of expression can come from speaking, writing, singing... whatever it is... a manner of expressing and putting out in the world our essence. This can be SCARY! How many times did we feel empowered to express to be shunned, ridiculed, judged, laughed at. These moments can define an entire life... and they dont need to. I believe we need to keep trying and to keep expressing. We live in a preachy positive on the outside, deeply afflicted with pain, sadness and anger on the inside world. There are beautiful and healthy ways to express even these less than savoury emotions.My yoga master Swami Santhi Prasad writes beautifully. This is one of his most beloved ways of expressing himself. Ive shared his recent poem on #NCR. I hope it inspires you & brings some peace for a beautiful week. Enjoy and as Madonna would say... Express Yourself! PS: singing in public would be way scarier to me than speaking. I dont drink so drunk karaoke is even out of the question!!!! #simasays #NCR #expressyourself #swamisanthi #gaillarsen #realspeaking #transformationalspeaking #madonna newculturerevolution.tumblr/post/81322523541/ncr-poetry-by-swami-santhi-a-bodhi-tree-bereft
