When we are in tune with ourselves we will notice that during our life we ​​will come into contact with the desire to start something new. The idea of ​​a "new beginning" is inevitably linked to the concept of the end. A difficult day ends, we suffocate in a superficial relationship, we get tired of a job that no longer covers us and the moment comes when we can recall with amazing clarity the steps we need to follow in order to "finish" what is preventing us from joy, evolution, meaning. This is the easy part. A more difficult one follows. To take action, to endure the pain of separations that will arise, to focus our gaze on what is in front of us, to move forward with faith and trust. With every new step in the new direction, with every choice that supports our decision, we mature and evolve. Despite the pain we discover a new energy inside us and as the journey has already begun we know we have made the right decision: "To become and also to live with the best version of ourselves" #omnamahshivaya 🙏🏻 www.angelosanandayoga.com #meetyourself #letitgo #transformyourlife #daretochange #bestyou #newbeginnings #yogaeverywhere #yogaeveryday #meninyoga #yogapractice #evolve #loveyourself #bekindtoyourself #selfacceptance #changeisgood #yogateacher #yogaretreats #yogaberlin #job #relationship #selfcare https://www.instagram.com/p/CqXSkkjsRBQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"Breaking Free: A Journey from Stuck to Self-Improvement"

In the labyrinth of existence, we often find ourselves wandering through the intricate maze of life, searching for meaning, purpose, and direction. It's as if we are tethered to this world by invisible strings, unable to break free from the endless cycle of routine, monotony, and complacency. But fear not, for I, a humble traveller on this spiritual journey, shall embark on an exploration of our predicament with you, my dear reader. I shall share with you the wisdom of ages, the tales of our shared humanity, and the promise of personal growth and self-improvement that lies within our grasp.

Allow me to begin with an anecdote, a tale that brings a touch of humor to our contemplation. Picture, if you will, a man named Nasruddin, a legendary figure in the world of Sufi stories. Nasruddin was known for his eccentricity, his quirky sense of humor, and his penchant for challenging the status quo. One day, as he wandered through the bustling marketplace of his town, he stumbled upon a heated argument.

A group of people was engaged in a fierce debate, each one adamant that their perspective was the only correct one. Nasruddin, being the curious and mischievous character that he was, decided to intervene. He approached the group, and with a sly smile, he asked, "Why are you all so certain that you're right?"

The crowd fell silent, taken aback by Nasruddin's audacity. After a moment, one of the participants spoke up, saying, "Well, we believe in what we believe because it's the way we've always done things. Our ancestors followed these traditions, and so do we."

Nasruddin chuckled and replied, "Ah, but my friends, don't you realize that sometimes you are like a donkey tied to a pole?"

The group exchanged puzzled glances. "A donkey tied to a pole? What do you mean?"

Nasruddin explained, "Imagine a donkey tied to a pole with a rope. No matter how hard the donkey tries to wander, it can only move in circles around the pole. It's stuck in its own limited world, unable to break free."

The people began to understand Nasruddin's message. He continued, "In your rigid beliefs and unquestioning adherence to tradition, you tie yourselves to a metaphorical pole. You go round and round, unable to explore the vast world of possibilities and growth beyond your limited perspective."

The crowd slowly nodded in realization, and some even chuckled at the wisdom hidden within Nasruddin's humorous analogy. This tale, my dear reader, serves as a mirror to our own lives. Are we, too, like the donkey tied to the pole, confined by our own limited beliefs and unwilling to explore the boundless possibilities that await us?

Our predicament in this world, the reason we often find ourselves stuck, is rooted in our tendency to resist change and cling to the familiar. It's human nature to seek comfort in routine, in what we know, and in what we've always done. But this reluctance to embrace the unknown, to question our beliefs, and to break free from the constraints of our comfort zones is what keeps us tethered to the world as we know it.

Throughout history, great thinkers, philosophers, and spiritual leaders have recognized this predicament and offered guidance on how to transcend it. They have shared profound insights on the nature of human existence and the path to personal growth and self-improvement.

One common theme that runs through their teachings is the concept of self-awareness. To break free from the chains that bind us to our limited worldview, we must first look inward and examine our beliefs, desires, and fears. It is only through self-awareness that we can begin to understand why we are stuck in this world and how we can move forward.

A 14th-century Sufi saint, much like myself, once said, "To find the way out of the maze, you must first understand the walls that surround you." In other words, to escape the confines of our current reality, we must acknowledge and confront the barriers that hold us back.

But self-awareness is just the beginning. To truly break free from the world's grasp, we must be willing to challenge our beliefs and embrace change. Change is a constant in life, and those who resist it are doomed to remain trapped in a never-ending cycle of monotony and routine.

Here, I offer you a simple exercise: Take a moment to reflect on your beliefs, your habits, and your daily routines. Are there aspects of your life that you feel stuck in? Are there beliefs that you've held onto simply because they were handed down to you by your ancestors, like the donkey tied to the pole? If so, consider the possibility that these beliefs may be limiting your growth and potential.

It's worth noting that change need not be drastic or overwhelming. Small, incremental steps can lead to significant personal growth. The key is to be open to new experiences and to actively seek out opportunities for learning and self-improvement.

In the words of the renowned Persian poet Rumi, "Do not be satisfied with the stories that come before you. Unfold your own myth." Each of us has the power to create our own narrative, to break free from the world's confines, and to write a story of personal growth and self-discovery.

To further illustrate this point, allow me to share another story from the Sufi tradition. This one involves a man who approached a wise elder, seeking guidance on how to improve his life. The elder handed the man a small, empty bag and instructed him to fill it with grains of sand from the nearby river. The man diligently scooped up handfuls of sand and poured them into the bag, only to have the elder shake the bag, causing the sand to pour out.

The man repeated the process, but the elder continued to shake the bag each time. Frustrated and bewildered, the man asked, "Why do you keep shaking the bag? I'm trying to fill it with sand!"

The elder smiled and replied, "Just as this bag will never hold the sand until it is empty, your life will never improve until you are willing to let go of what no longer serves you. Only then can you make space for something new."

The man understood the lesson and, with a sense of humor, began to empty the bag of sand before refilling it. He realized that his life was like that bag, filled with the accumulated weight of old beliefs, grudges, and habits. By letting go of these burdens, he created room for personal growth and positive change.

So, my dear reader, I implore you to take a moment to examine your own bag of sand. What are the burdens you carry? What beliefs, grudges, or habits are holding you back? It is only when you release these weights that you can embark on a journey of self-improvement and personal growth.

It's important to remember that the path to self-improvement is not a solitary one. Throughout history, individuals have found guidance, inspiration, and support in the company of like-minded souls, in the wisdom of mentors, and in the pages of books that offer new perspectives and insights.
