Transformation for most of us can feel like loss of something precious rather than personal growth.
According to psychology, it happens because the brain is wired to protect your sense of identity, even if it is no longer serving you. This is called identity foreclosure.🧠 Letting go of an old habit, an old version of yourself, or an old way of thinking is when the mind experiences grief. It resists simply because it is familiar.
This is why the energy of Maa Kali has been revered in yogic tradition for thousands of years. 🙏 She is the power that helps you move through that resistance anyway.
And one detail worth knowing is in her iconography, Maa Kali is shown standing on Lord Shiva, who represents pure consciousness and stillness. 🕉️ The deeper meaning is that transformation, however intense, must always be rooted in awareness. Without that stillness underneath, change can become chaos.🌪️
A consistent yoga practice slowly builds that stillness in you. So when life asks you to let go of something, and it will, you have something steady inside to stand on 🧘🏻♀️
