Cultivating Simplicity

Greetings Yogis and Yoginis,

This week in class we are considering the topic “Cultivating Simplicity.”

Sheer poverty never made anyone more peaceful; extreme but voluntary austerity is often the flip side of extravagance. The mark of successful detachment from possessions is not how few of them we have around us, but how little space they occupy in our minds.

- Maggie Kramm

The reflection from the quote is to understand for yourself what it means to be detached from your possessions. List the things that you think you can not live without. Choose one of these things to totally let go of for a week. Observe how your mind works while you let go.

Blessings,
