When we are stressed, we are on guard against life, but when we are relaxed, we become ourselves.

Being stressed out makes us feel small and coiled up. What if you let yourself unwind for a moment and realize the comfort within? By giving yourself this chance to recline into your spirit, your true nature of bliss comes to the surface.

In today's recording I discussed a yoga fable that tells a greater truth about ourselves. The story of Vishnu and Lakshmi tells us how we can retreat into the comfort of our own heart into the ocean of imortality. The divine couple lies back into the Shesha Anata, the couch of consciousness. In repose they go back into the eternal sustaining power within. This story shows us that we lean back into the bigger spirit, it replenishes us and allows a deeper creative power to surface.
