Best Self Challenge - Robyn

My training at Rasa Yoga has been and continues to be about learning acceptance of myself. Living my life has been about focusing on the negatives that I need to change and ignoring the positives. When I would fail, I would punish myself for not being enough. My desire has always been to be my best so The Best Self Challenge seemed like just what I needed. This challenge requires me to live my life in a different way than I have been used to living my life. It requires seeing the positives and knowing that there is a best self that is me. Accepting this requires me to get out of my comfort zone and accept where I am instead of deciding I am doing it wrong.

I love doing courses. The Best Self Challenge provides many different ways to access the information, Masterclasses, Healing Retreat, videos, meditations, journaling and more. The thing is that when I first started the Best Self Challenge, I thought I had to do everything and when I couldn’t I thought I should just give it up. I felt it was just proving that I wasn’t enough, I couldn’t do it so why try. The biggest lesson for me in the Best Challenge was learning that Padma will always provide more than I can do. It does not mean that I am not enough. Accepting myself means allowing myself to be where I am and doing what I can instead of quitting because I can’t do it all.

Not finishing courses is a pattern for me, but often I start out great, but then give up when I can’t do everything and complete it on time. The Best Self Challenge has taught me that I need a different goal. I need to see the positives. I need to allow myself to see the best self that I am. The goal is not finish or complete everything. Instead, I learn to have gratitude for the lessons that I learn and see my growth. Challenging myself to accept myself as I am is a lesson I will probably be learning for the rest of my life.

Join me on this challenge to find your best self. You don’t have to do it all or be anything other than yourself. See you on the path.

Warmly,
Robyn Holloway, Ramya Chitta
