TRUTH from the Big Intentions Card Deck by Erin Lee and Tracey Keturah. 

Tadasana MOUNTAIN POSE

When we are searching for Truth, what we’re really doing is journeying beyond the limits of our human experience.

Truth lives in your eternal soul.

However, along the human journey, we can mistake Truth for opinions, preferences, perspectives and judgements.

We can also fall into the trap of trying to think our way to the Truth, by weighing up the pros and cons of a situation.

Sometimes our emotions try to hijack us, and have us believe that they are the Truth.

Truth doesn’t live out there – somewhere outside of us. Nor does it live in some kind of temporary experience, like a thought or emotion.

Truth lives in your ever-lasting soul, waiting to be unveiled and realised.

Mountain Pose asks you to stand tall in your own Truth, keeping your heart open with an understanding that temporary conditions will pass.

This is an invitation for you to awaken Truth in your body.

From a standing position, bring your big toes together, and slightly separate the heels.

Keep a microbend in your knees, and imagine roots branching from your feet, down into the core of the Earth.

Extend your arms long by your sides. With the palms facing forward, reach out through all your fingers.

Rotate the thighs in toward one another, then broaden across the front of the pelvis.

Activate the core by engaging the pelvic floor, and drawing the front ribs in toward one another.

Breathe in as you lengthen through your side waists.

Breathe out to relax your shoulders, drawing the chin in toward your throat. Feel the crown of your head rise up toward the sky, resembling the peak of a mountain.

Close your eyes or keep the gaze soft, as you allow the breeze of your breath to journey through your inner landscape.

Your truth is an expression of your soul, otherwise referred to as your true nature. Invite Truth in
