Release and acceptance are vital for change to happen, In our modern society we are utterly fixated by the need for growth and expansion. So obsessed that we have forgotten the other half of life’s perfect circle. Autumn, the fall were everything is released and that energy goes back to the earth to re-energise and fertilise ready for the next spring to come.

Release is so important in yoga and life. It is to surrender, to stop trying, to allow, to receive, to let go, to give freedom to what is imprisoned, to set free, and to return.

It is here in deep states of release that we receive true inspiration, and it is this inspiration that feeds our ambition to change.
