Surfers and Yogis: Embracing a Life Less Ordinary
A life less ordinary – a concept that resonates deep within the hearts of surfers and yogis, those who seek experiences over possessions, and authenticity over conformity. The Salty Yogis understand the allure of living a life off the beaten path, and we invite you to embark on a journey of self-discovery, bravery, and surrender.
Take a Risk and be brave -
Surfing and yoga teach us the art of balance, both physically and metaphorically. Much like catching a wave or mastering a challenging yoga pose, living a life less ordinary often requires taking risks. We've witnessed the transformation that comes with consciously choosing experiences and lifestyle over conventional career paths. It's about summoning the courage to risk it all, to fall or to fly, and to embrace the extraordinary that lies beyond the ordinary.
Let go Your Comfort Zone -
Surfers know that the best waves are found beyond the safety of the shore, and yogis understand that growth happens outside the comfort of a familiar pose. Living a life less ordinary demands stepping out of your comfort zone, pushing boundaries, and embracing the discomfort that comes with it. It's the butterflies in your stomach – a mixture of excitement and fear, a reminder that you're on the path to something extraordinary.
Get Over Your Fears -
Fear is the silent barrier that often holds us back from living the life we truly desire. The practice of fear-setting, involves acknowledging your fears, exploring worst-case scenarios, and then developing practical solutions for each. It's a powerful tool to dismantle the unknown, allowing you to face your fears head-on and move towards a life less ordinary.
(Easy to write but really hard to apply in our daily life ! Let’s at least do our best to try).
The power to be on the present moment -
Surfing and yoga teach us to be present – to feel the rush of the wave, the stretch of a pose, or the stillness of meditation. Being present is a gateway to a less ordinary life, offering benefits such as reduced anxiety, enhanced confidence, clarity, and creativity. Whether it's catching a perfect wave or finding stillness on the yoga mat, being here now is the key to unlocking life's extraordinary moments.
Be open (whatever already happened) -
In a world that often values skepticism over innocence, and cynicism over kindness, we encourage you to strip it back to the basics. Be the person you wish everyone else was – kind, humble, naive, and open. These qualities, often underrated in certain spheres, are the foundation of a life less ordinary. When you embody these virtues, magic happens, and life unfolds in ways you never imagined.
As you navigate the waves of life and the depths of your practice, remember that a life less ordinary is not a destination but a journey. Embrace the risk, step out of your comfort zone, conquer your fears, be present, and embody kindness. In doing so, you'll find that good things happen, magic unfolds, and life becomes a beautiful, less ordinary adventure.
