Embracing Change: A Reflection on Life with Aum by Zoë

Lately, it feels as though everything is shifting—internally and externally. Relationships are evolving, careers are being redefined, and old patterns are surfacing for release. We are all in a cycle of transformation, whether we’ve chosen it or not. And in the midst of it all, one truth continues to echo louder than ever:

The only consistency in life is change.

This idea isn’t just a poetic observation—it’s a spiritual principle that lies at the heart of many ancient teachings. In the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, we find guidance for navigating this ever-changing world:

Sutra 1.2 – "Yogas chitta vritti nirodhah"Yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind.

When we practice yoga—not just as movement, but as a way of being—we learn to hold ourselves steady while the tides of life rise and fall. Through the breath, the body, and energy work, we return to our center and reconnect with the part of us that is always calm, always whole, always present.

Here are a few tools I’ve been turning to in my practice lately—and I invite you to explore them with me:

Yoga Asana: Tree Pose (Vrksasana)

This simple, grounding posture is a powerful reminder that we can be both rooted and flexible. Like a tree swaying in the wind, we learn to adapt without losing our foundation.

Breathwork: Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing)

This pranayama technique balances the left and right sides of the brain, calming the nervous system and bringing mental clarity—perfect for moments of uncertainty or emotional overwhelm.

Reiki Symbol: Sei He Ki

Known as the harmony symbol, Sei He Ki is used to bring emotional and mental healing. It’s a beautiful energetic ally when navigating change, helping to release fear, balance emotions, and restore inner peace.

We are in a collective season of deep energetic shifts. Eclipses, planetary retrogrades, and global uncertainty are amplifying our inner transformation. If you feel like old versions of yourself are falling away—it’s because they are. Change is not something to fear, but something to welcome as a natural part of evolution.

Let your practice be your anchor. Let your breath remind you of your strength. Let your heart guide you home.

Journal Prompt: What version of myself am I ready to release, and what qualities do I wish to embody as I move forward with grace through this season of change?

Take a few breaths, place your hand on your heart, and allow your pen to move freely. There are no wrong answers—only truths waiting to be heard.

If you feel the need for support, grounding, or energetic clearing, I’m here. Whether through Reiki, yoga, or meditation, let’s create space together to release, renew, and rise.

With love and light, Zoë
