Week 12 Challenge - Dreams and Goals

This year I decided to challenge myself to reflect on various Yoga and Buddhist aspects throughout the year. The challenges come from a variety of places including readings in Deborah Adele's Yamas and Niyamas and Thich Nhat Hanh's Heart of the Buddha's Teaching and Happiness.

This week's challenge is about looking at my dreams and goals and figuring out what I can do to get closer to them. It was a fairly easy week for me since I had recently done this in various areas of my life.

From a personal, lifestyle perspective I have a variety of goals that I've been working towards. They include more exercise, more whole grains, more whole foods, more vegan meals, more self-care. I've been adding in a bit each week to increase these things in my life.

From a business perspective I had recently done some goal setting for where I'd like my business to be in the next few months and how to get there. I ordered some signs for outside the house and have expanded the number of classes I'm offering in April.

I've also spent some time thinking about some other things such as retreats and karma Yoga and how to fit those into my life.

It was nice to do some reflection of where I am and where I'm going.

  1. I think it is so important to set goals for ourselves! And to take the time to reflect on them. Self care is often thrown by the wayside with our busy schedules but if we can't take care of ourselves, how are we to care for others, and the earth? Blessings to you and best of luck, Nadine!
    In gratitude,
    Karuna
