Yoga Journal #3: Luck Factor

Did a bit of evening yoga last night  – waiting for Warren to get home – definitely have more energy in the evenings.

Woke up and read in bed this morning (rather than look at my phone first thing) Did two quick sun salutation then sat for a 15 min meditation – felt way more comfortable and focused today – am wondering if it something to do with not looking at my phone first thing?! Gonna try it again tomorrow.

Starting reading the luck factor and it speaks about being relaxed and open to opportunity. It’s a super interesting book but I keep wanting to substitute the word “luck” for something! Maybe exchange it for “the universe” or “life” or “energy” or something. I’m not sure. Wow – that sentence. Am a total hippie. I also feel that the concept of being “relaxed” relates so much to the idea of “all is coming” in that we don’t need to feel anxious or worried – believe that all is coming, feel relaxed and it will all come.

It also speaks about “openness” and being able to see opportunity by not being so fixated on one specific thing that you are rushing after. I can definitely relate to this concept of mindfulness and the much greater, more general awareness that it brings you.

So many of the books I read about luck/success/business/philosophy/psychology all seem to say the same thing but come packaged in different ways.
