Sat Nam,

This week we move to our next Sutra in our series “When the time is on you start and the pressure will be off”.

Last week a student asked if we would still be working through ‘there is a way through every block’ because this has helped him and we said yes as not starting something that needs to be started is a block.

There’s a lot of reasons people don’t start what they need too and allow the pressure to build:

❌Perfectionism

❌Overwhelm

❌Laziness

❌Self doubt

❌Not making time

❌Holding on to excuses

And the list goes on.

But all these reasons are blocks that you have created out of fear because starting something new takes you into the unknown and that can be scary.

A great training ground for starting something is on your mat. When I’m asked to start a difficult posture or Kriya, I often hesitate just before I start.  The self doubt, fear, laziness, excuses rise up for a moment, but I recognise them for what they are, blocks, and once I start and get into it, the momentum takes over and I feel the pressure of ‘how am I going to do this’ leave me.  I may stop and start through the process, but once I’ve begun, well there’s no turning back from that.

Yogi Bhajan predicted the Aquarian Age would be full of unrest and from what we are witnessing his predictions are pretty spot on.  It’s a time when people are rising up and wanting to make a difference on this planet.  I know in my community, there’s a number of people with amazing gifts to share who talk about sharing them, but don’t start.  They have all the excuses listed above and it’s frustrating because the planet needs there gifts more than ever!

In a world of overload of information and over stimulation through technology it’s easy to put what needs to be done in the too hard basket and allow things to pile up creating big pressure.

✅Take it one step at a time but start.

✅Even if you start and stop you have started and the only way is forward.

It’s amazing when you start, things begin to flow because you’ve moved through the resistance.  So got something you need to do? 

✅Start.
