Autumn equinox reflections

The Autumn Equinox reminds us that balance is a crossing, not a place where life stays.

At the Autumn Equinox

For one fleeting moment,

the Earth seems to hold

light and darkness in almost equal measure.

Then it keeps moving.

Perhaps there is wisdom in that.

Balance was never meant

to freeze us in place.

Living things balance through movement,

adjustment, release, and return.

And perhaps autumn asks something deeper

than what we are ready to let go.

It asks what deserves to come with us.

Which love has grown stronger?

Which truth survived the difficult season?

Which dream still has roots beneath the soil?

As we cross this ancient threshold

between light and darkness,

perhaps we can leave some things behind.

And carry the essential things forward.

We don’t only choose what to release.

We choose what deserves to remain.

Because every season of letting go

is also a season of choosing what remains.

Yoga is certainly one thing that will remain in my life. Not just through autumn, but through all the seasons of my life.

If you would like to either get back in to or try yoga for the first time please get in touch. I run several classes a week and would love to share this gift with you. 🍁🧡
