A conditioned "yes" to unconditional positive regard. :-) I'm guessing your blame (and perhaps anger) serves you in some way. So before jumping to unconditional positive regard for the one who caused pain to those you love, make sure to honor and respect what is arising within you. You, including your anger and blame, also get to be the object of your unconditional positive regard.

I hope everyone is doing okay...

Yes, everyone is on the mend. Thank you for asking and your thoughtful comment. Yes, it's a process to get there for sure. I like how you frame that anger and blame, some very human emotions, get the unconditional positive regard as well. Great point!

Ok, Ok, I'll try to stop with the "yoga money" cracks. Who knew they'd get old after only 94 times! :)

Love this! And thanks for the shout-out. :) As someone critical of wellness but very still much invested in yoga, being real about how hard it is to sometimes live by yogic philosophy is so much more valuable to students than pretending it's easy. Thanks for your honesty and your beautiful wisdom!
