In the Yoga Sutras it mentions that there are things

that will hold us back from experiencing stillness;

delusion is the first listed.

Delusion: thinking something is when it isn't

or when it isn't but it really is.

I think delusion is tough to identify alone and that is when I am in need of a teacher or someone who can guide me with care and wisdom. For example we may be under the assumption that we aren't tired but then as we allow a teacher to guide us we may start to see what is really there. Yawn and notice that "Yeah I'm exhausted".

Sunday March 27th I am leading online at 7pm EST a guided rest meditation. You may want to check on yourself or maybe you already know you are depleted but lets check it out together. Maybe you will be surprised by what you learn about yourself. Often those I work with are surprised to see that they can rest when they thought they couldn't be still. Others observe that they aren't as tired as they thought and instead they just lay and rest. Either way the lead experience provides you more information and clears up the delusion about ourselves.

Hope to see you soon and have a great day and weekend for no reason!

Jai!
