Patience

We are in week four of a kitchen remodel.  The changes are so fun to see!

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...
