Bhagavad Gita 6.16-17

Yoga is not for one who eats too much, nor for one who eats too little; nor for one who sleeps too much, nor too little.

Theme: Decision Making

"Yoga is not for one who eats too much, nor for one who eats too little; nor for one who sleeps too much, nor too little. For one who is moderate in eating, recreation, work, sleep, and waking, yoga becomes the destroyer of sorrow."

Modern explanation

Begin today by remembering: Most decisions are made by your body before your mind notices. Tend the body and many choices grow clearer.

Practical application

Write the decision you are facing in one clean sentence. Then set it aside until midday.

Reflection question

What information would I gather today if I were calm?
