Proprioception. From Latin meaning “one’s own” and perception, it means knowing where your body is in space even if you can’t see it. Without proprioception, we’d need to watch our feet to make sure we stay upright while walking.

It was this innate sense of inner-knowing that led me to join the Seva Challenge even though I couldn’t see the steps ahead of me.

Today was our second visit with the girls at Saanlap. We showed up ready to teach them a Yoga class, do some cleaning and painting, and enjoy spending time just hanging out and playing. If you have ever been to India, you know the best laid plans are not always brought to fruition. This was the case for us today, but the best advice is: when in India, go with the flow! It is essential for your happiness and peace of mind to have no expectations or try to control anything.
