In yoga, we are taught to sit with our shit. To accept it, and to let it be, and to let it leave as it leaves, aware of the whole thing. In yoga we practice being in uncomfortable situations, listening to ourselves, and not immediately responding. We stay in those situations and we breathe. But yoga is only 60 or 75 minutes. I've been sitting in this shit for 3 days. I'm breathing, but it's on my mind often, so I'm just breathing. Every additional day is harder. Each day I re-accept the situation. Each day I re-accept my fears and embrace myself and my confusion. And then I breathe it out to let it go. There will come a time when I will need to say something. It is not right now, though. That feels selfish, rash. I'm still sitting, staying, breathing, right now.
