Confidence (and trust along with it) is like a house of cards. Once it’s shattered, the pieces take so long to build back up. In order to regain that delicate structure, the first thing to do is still the mind and body. Pick up a piece and begin.
House of Cards
Published April 27th, 2008 in Yoga Thinking, Buddhist Thinking, Deep Thoughts and Spirituality.
My house of cards has been shattering over a lifetime, and I am just now restoring it piece by piece. One thing I am instructed to do is sit with my hand over my solar plexis, and another is a centering thing where I am to ask the universe and the earth to nourish me after doing arm and shoulder strengthening yoga stretches.
I am looking for a metaphor here, as I seek the house of my dreams. Maybe as I build the house of cards, my house of bricks will materialize. I’d better get to work.
Hugs,
