From this day forward, responding to external demands (ie emails from strangers insisting it is imperative I join their group blah blah blah) only gets 15 minutes of my time per week.
... and any email that causes me immediate anxiety just gets deleted.
I think it is so tempting to let external forces (ie email) dictate where we spend our energy and time. I vow to stay centered and spend my time and energy based on internal promptings of spirit instead.
I have decided it is time to set some boundaries in regards to work - this is after spending the entire holiday weekend practically on my computer!

Well, I just messaged a question about finding balance. Afterwards, I decided to make my way thru my top priority emails. I accidentally deleted the entire file and could not recover it. I feel relieved. I guess that is the answer!
Today I am pondering life balance - is it possible with all the stresses and demands of modern life? With all the constant stimuli how can we know what is truly important to respond to? These are my thoughts this morning.

I am feeling gratitude for the many wonderful yoga students and colleagues in my life. The world is full of people who just want to do the right thing ... may your kindness change the world.
