Do you read and watch everything because you want to stay informed, only to find yourself not sleeping and full of anxiety?

Do you ignore everything that is happening because you just don't want to know?

As I contemplate my own behavior, I am reminded of the yoga teachings of right living - Ahimsa - which means non harming and right living. What does this mean to you?

If I'm looking away, and ignoring what's happening I'm then practicing Avidya - which means to look away, not know or ignorance. As you can see this may not be the best solution.

So what can we do?

As Yoga and Ayurveda teaches us, life is a balance. We need to find a balance to stay healthy in body and mind with the information we take in, the quiet we create in our own home, our daily practices, the foods we eat, etc.

So the question is what's best for us? Each of us are individuals and need to create our own path with Ahimsa and Avidya.

One thing I know to be helpful is meditation. By now you know I'm offering a course with my biz bestie Chris to help us tap into our own knowing and find our path through all this chaos.

But there are also a lot of other choices you can do. Join a meditation membership, find an app, sit in nature, create silence in your life. One thing is for sure, creating quiet and space helps our nervous system to regulate which keeps all of our systems in balance and harmony.
