Experience has taught me to watch for red flags in people’s behavior to figure out what to expect from them. That way I know how to protect myself from their actions. If said actions seem psychotic, unreliable, or worrisome I can then make a quick judgment call to run in the opposite direction to prevent harm.
Yoga on the other hand teaches me not to judge, to be open and receptive to all kinds of behaviors, approaches and personality, step back, observe and let things unfold at their own pace.
I am still very much unsure which is the best approach. The fist one is more practical but denies opportunities whether the second one is more inspiring but leaves more chances to get hurt.
