The art of life is to nourish our roots. Just like the tree we grow when we are grounded. Physically this is something I have come across in the last few weeks particularly. Concentrating on grounding my feet throughout my yoga practice has helped me build a strong foundation for poses and flows. I feel stable, rooted, connected with the earth. Without this base we are prone to injury and knock our alignment. This is purely physically, however we can only grow mentally and spiritually when we nourish our roots. If we do not water our roots, we do not grow tall and strong. And if we do not grow tall and strong how do we find the light we need to blossom? Food for thought.
