Struggling

I am struggling.

I am feeling somewhat disconnected and experiencing a loss of focus lately. 

Earlier in the week I realized that part of the problem is I am feeling alone in my training and trying to do too much on my own. Some of this is due to circumstances beyond my control and some is because I'm not taking full advantage of the resources available. I feel like I'm "training in a silo" in more ways than one.

As the week finished I still felt there was something else I was missing. After some brief meditation, the word grounded came to mind. Hmm, that makes sense. Balance has been affected, flow comes and goes, connection to the ground and purpose has been affected and ego has sneakily run amok. As a result I have been easily distracted.

What's missing?

1. My yoga practice has decreased significantly in the past month. Yoga provides me with numerous benefits and one of those benefits is being and feeling more grounded, emotionally and spiritually. 

2. Taking full advantage of the one on one's with my instructors.

3. Connecting with the other 2nd degree brown belts and fellow students.

The good news is I've identified some key issues and can see a solution and formulate a plan.
