We are in week four of a kitchen remodel. The changes are so fun to see!
 Week One: |  Week Four: |
But in the meantime, the rest of my house looks like this:
Don't get me wrong, I feel very fortunate that we are able to afford this remodel. We've saved for a long time and are paying in cash.
With gratitude (hopefully appropriately) expressed, this project has definitely tried my patience. Home is my sanctuary. Where I find peace. Where I practice. And I've found it hard to be consistent in my practice when not only my mind, but my sanctuary is in chaos.
So, I remind myself of the basics. Sutra I.2. "Yoga is the stilling of the changing states of mind" so said Patanjali. "Practice and all is coming" so urged Pattabhi Jois.
I wonder if Patanjali and Pattabhi Jois ever lived through a kitchen remodel...
