Moderation

There is peace in moderation.

That sounds deliberate, not very sexy, and maybe even a bit boring. Yet it manifests as balance and health. And that feels good. I'm learning about "brahmacarya" (moderation) from Rolf Gates in his book of daily reflections entitled "Meditations from the Mat."

I enjoy reading the daily entries in this book as a guide for my day even when that day doesn't include yoga or as many mindful practices as I hope.

How does moderation feel for you? May you have a peace filled day today.⠀
