Finding Balance in

a World of Imbalance

As we wrap up our examination of the Divine Feminine this week, we're going to look at balance. When the world contains too much constriction and too little diversity we become stuck as individuals and as societies.

Balance poses teach us to marry the ideas of contraction and expansion to achieve the full expression of the pose and ourselves. What I discovered in my journey to headstand was that I had too much expansion and too little contraction: boundaries must be set to achieve a state of balance and that's what I was missing in trying to achieve the pose.

We also take ourselves out of balance in life when we don't establish boundaries for ourselves and respect the boundaries of others. Examining the myths we learn, that when boundaries are violated (the demons stealing the sacrifices meant for the gods and taking over the heavens), the Goddess must enter the scene to restore the balance so that the world can move forward.

This week, we use the body as a model for balance that we can bring back to our lives, establishing boundaries so that we can expand with better clarity and results.
