Yahoo! Health Expert Blogs Yoga for You - Telling the Truth
Yahoo! Health Expert Blogs Yoga for You - Telling the Truth: "Dear yogis,
Telling the truth is good medicine. The health of your heart, mind, and body depends so much on being honest. Just think how your body feels when you tell even the smallest lie. There is a knot that begins to fist up in the pit of your stomach, your breath becomes inhibited, and your heart shrinks.
Most of us try to manipulate the future by bending the truth. Because many of us seek to avoid conflict and try to win approval, we change stories to fit our needs. More and more, I am beginning to see that the truth is liberating, no matter how difficult it is to tell. It seems to always find its way out in the open anyway. When we align our words and actions around the truth, our souls soar. When we don't, there is more and more heavy baggage to lug around.
Be mindful before you speak and observe the effects of what you say on others and yourself. Even though the truth may result in confrontation, it is an essential part of the road to peace.
Peace in our words,
Rodney Yee"
