We can make things complex or we can take them as they are. If we just take them as they are we will save time, because sometimes they will be complex, but many others they will be simple.
Approaching life with the appropriate cognitive frame can promote a proper distribution for our energies and can be a way of promoting healthy and productive efforts.
There are points in our life where we realize that there is nothing to do and nothing to be, and still we are doing and being. These are the sweet spots in which we can create good quality effort, because there is no craving.
Craving moves us towards accumulation, but presence will tame desire and offer transient perfect experiences. Please, don't confuse perfection with perfectionism! Perfection is not about culminating things in a specific way, it is just being in the path with courage and patience.
The very delicate balance between acting and letting go creates sophisticated arquitectures for the mind and the body. Well invested effort will give us energy. Overdoing the effort will leave us exhausted. These are not new ideas, taoism was talking about this long ago, and the yogic life is all about vital forces.
This is why shape and form depend on the moment. This is why the trees and the sun look different each day, even if they don’t move.
I know that the body is aging, and that my practices through the body train the mind for the acceptance of transient things.
It is an honor to be alive, a real privilege, even if sometimes a little confusing and clearly mysterious.
Take the ride! Ride the wave! It is transient.

Here in Ibiza the weather is inviting us to take the wave, and the activity around us is announcing the preparation of a long seasonal celebration of enjoyment and sharing with open hearts and relaxed moods.
My seasonal work is starting in the first week of May, I will keep you updated on the schedule for group and private classes. Please remember to check your dates with time, bookings tend to have that delicate balance that works much better with anticipation Like love, well done things always result in relaxed experiences.
I wish you good breathing, warm feelings and healthy thoughts, wherever you are.
