TODAY'S LEARNING
Thriving In Uncertainty
We will all experience change at some point in our lives. Change can make us feel uncomfortable and disoriented, whether it is anticipated or unanticipated, big or tiny, good or unpleasant.
It might be challenging to see the possibilities for development and self-discovery that are open to us in these times of uncertainty.
Here are seven effective steps to embracing change as a catalyst for personal evolution and thriving in the face of life's constantly shifting currents.
Step 1: Ground
Return to Center
Getting rooted in the present moment is the main goal of the first stage. We can quickly become disoriented and detached as a result of the life's unforeseen turns and turns. We can let go of tension and discover equilibrium in the midst of chaos by coming back to the present. We can face change with a sense of inner calm by engaging in grounding techniques like meditation and breathwork, which can help us move through challenging emotions.
Step 2: Release
Embrace Letting Go
We must first let go of our attachments to the past and what may have been before we can accept change. We are urged to let go of assumptions and expectations via the release stage. We allow ourselves to be open to new possibilities that might be even greater than what we had in mind through a process of surrender and acceptance. While letting go doesn't imply forgetting the past, it does allow us to move forward more fluidly and easily.
Step 3: Shift
Change Your Perspective
We see the world through a lens called perspective. The "Shift" step asks us to look at our beliefs and mental processes related to change and reframe our viewpoint. What was once "I can't do this" is now "I've faced challenges before and overcame them." We confront our limiting ideas and go from a scarcity mentality to an abundance mentality through this change in self-talk. This gives us the ability to see change as an opportunity for personal development and growth rather than as something to be resisted or feared.
Step 4: Accept
Embrace What Is
The hardest part of navigating change can be acceptance. The world is changing all the time, whether you like it or not, whether you accept it or not. The way forward is to accept the world as it is right now and to accept the changes that have taken place. Acceptance makes it possible to see the opportunities that come with change, including the potential for happiness and personal development even in the face of uncertainty. We become more adaptable and resilient when we come to terms with the transience of life.
Step 5: Affirm
Empower Yourself
It's normal to experience self-doubt and uncertainty while things are changing, which can impede our growth. Affirmation phrases can act as energizing reminders of our true potential by acknowledging our strengths, values, and objectives. By constantly expressing our inner potential and strength, we develop a resilient mindset that allows us to face change with poise and assurance.
Step 6: Inquire
Discover Your True Desires
It's simple to lose sight of what we actually desire from life in the day-to-day activities. We may frequently find ourselves pursuing things without understanding why. Self-reflection and self-inquiry allow us to uncover our actual desires and aspirations independent of societal standards and outside influences. Our passions and purposes become a guiding light throughout times of change, assisting us in making decisions that are consistent with who we truly are.
Step 7: Thrive
Set Intentions for Growth
The last stage of this process urges us to develop goals for ourselves going forward, goals for thriving during transitional times and beyond. We link our behaviors and choices with our newly discovered awareness of ourselves by having a clear vision in mind. Intentions act as potent mantras that reaffirm our dedication to self-improvement, adaptability, and prospering in the face of change.

POSITIVE NEWS OF THE DAY
Taylor Swift is a Hero to Food Banks Across the U.S. at Each Stop of Her Eras Tour…
Economists told CNN recently that Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour is becoming such a massive phenomenon that it’s having demonstrable impacts on the US economy at large, but it’s not only stadium venues, record labels, and ticket vendors benefiting.
Everywhere she goes, Swift is making big donations to US food banks allowing them to feed hundreds of thousands of needy Americans.
The Eras Tour kicked off in Arizona, where she presented a hefty check to the Arizona Food Bank Network big enough to fill tractor-trailers with 40,000 pounds of fresh produce, and reinforce benefit programs for children who rely on school meals and seniors who rely on food stamps.
YOGA FLOW
Open Your Heart & Calm The Mind
Take a break from striving with this forward-bending practice, which will keep you close to the earth and help calm your thoughts.
AS YOU PRACTICE Make sure the room is at a comfortable temperature, and take time to steady your mind by finding a relaxed breathing rhythm and focusing on your exhalation.
1. Supta Baddha Konasana (Reclining Bound Angle Pose) Lie on your back, with the soles of the feet together and the knees open wide, each resting on a blanket, and with your arms by your sides, palms facing up. Allow the muscles of the abdomen and inner thighs to relax toward the floor.
2. Ananda Balasana ( Happy Baby) On your back, the knees are bent slightly wider than the hips. The ankles and shins track the knees in a 90-degree angle perpendicular to the earth. The hands grip the inside sole of the flexed feet (if you have difficultly holding the feet loop a strap over each sole) and push the knees down, coaxing the thighs in toward the torso, lengthening the spine, releasing the tail bone toward the earth and extending the base of the skull away from the back of the neck. The gaze is up toward the sky.
3. Balasana (Child’s Pose) Lower your leg and move into a kneeling position, sitting on your feet. Fold forward from your hips, allowing your torso to rest on your thighs and keeping your knees hip-width apart. Rest your head on your hands or on a bolster in front of you.
4. Cat-Cow Pose Come to your hands and knees. Inhale, extend your spine forward, and draw your head up and back. Exhale, round your spine, and drop your head, like a cat arching its back. Repeat Cat-Cow 5 to 10 times, and then come upright to a kneeling position.
5. Adho Mukha Svanasana (DownwardFacing Dog Pose) From cat-cow, tuck the toes under and step back into Downward Dog. Take long, deep breaths, focusing on the exhalation and lengthening your spine.
6. Setu Bandha Sarvangasana (Bridge Pose) Lift your hips into Bridge Pose, with your feet hip-width apart and knees stacked over your ankles. Interlace your fingers behind your back, and extend your arms toward your feet. Exhale to release. End with Savasana.
