Balance | by Kajal Dhabalia

Everyone I know is striving for some kind of balance in their life; I know I do. What about you?
This new piece really hits home for me because for the past few years balance for me has been trying to find a happy medium between wanting to feel “grounded” and wanting to “take flight”.
On one hand I want to feel grounded through a nourishing daily routine…where I find a balance between my work life, taking care of my family, getting in my yoga practices, working out, eating fresh, doing seva (volunteer work), getting ample rest etc, etc.
And on the other hand there’s a part of me that wants to “take flight”…have more adventures, be a little more spontaneous and not be so rigid with myself and getting “everything” done.
But what I’m slowly learning is that when I stop and really (and I mean REALLY) listen to my heart…my heart is constantly whispering to me…telling me what I really need…and what I don’t—I just have to be open enough to hear it. And that what I call stepping into the currents of grace.
What does balance look like to you? Do you lean towards feeling grounded or wanting to take flight….or are you tapped into stepping into the currents of grace?
xo,
Kajal
