But when we sit down, expecting our minds to still, distractions to vanish, and inner turmoil to cease--simply because we\u2019re meditating--we\u2019re setting ourselves up for failure (and usually more tension than we started with!). Meditation isn\u2019t about seeking some tranquil space. Nor is it about overriding sadness, depression, monkey mind, or fatigue.\n\nIn today\u2019s Poolside Sutra, we\u2019ll explore what meditation really is- and, hopefully, you\u2019ll discover that it\u2019s a lot more accessible than you thought. \n\nIf you\u2019re struggling to get (or stay) on your cushion, much less making friends with yourself once you do, today\u2019s episode is for you. \n\nIf you love these Sutras, please consider joining me for my upcoming SHE Yoga & Meditation Teacher Training, now open for registration.\n\nAt this unconventional gathering, I\u2019ll share the under-the-hood techniques and principles I\u2019ve used in my own yoga & meditation for two decades \u2014 and taught to thousands of women, worldwide. Whether you\u2019re aching to support other women or just deepen your own practice, you\u2019ll find the feminine heart of yoga and meditation there. And, yes: we\u2019ll have plenty of pool-time, too. www.SHEYogaTraining.com\n","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/4eb5d170-0060-4bac-8586-09341365e389/artworks-ttuzibyba2ax1fv3-76xuha-t3000x3000.jpg"}
