Commercially, February is the month of love. Since many of us are either not in a romantic relationship or our relationship has evolved from the romantic to something deeper, it is a good time to examine and practice the deeper meaning of what love truly is. From the yogic perspective, love is:
- Treating others as equally valuable to ourselves
- Viewing others as part of the same greater whole of which we are a part
- Resisting the urge to judge others' behaviors
- Consciously thinking loving thoughts toward others, even those who push our buttons
- Acting in the best interest of someone else
- Framing any painful truth in as much kindness and compassion as possible
What is your idea of love?
Kind regards,
Stacy
