Safety within the mat

Many times, before beginning class, I make this statement:

"Take a moment to create a sacred space within your mat" 

What exactly does this mean?

Feeling a sense of safety goes way beyond using props.  It's about taking a moment to create a space that is inviting.  A place that feels as an extension of who we are and we feel comfortable being ourselves.

Our mat, like the relationships in our lives, or like our homes, are places in which we own it to ourselves to be free, to feel 100 percent safe.  Honoring where we are at that moment, without any shame or thought, is crucial.

It takes way longer than a few moments to create this safety place.  It takes full awareness and practice.

What area of your life are you trying to make sacred?

Love,

P
