Great topic.

The only fear of mirrors I have is discovering a new grey hair...

A couple of months ago I was planning my new room. I have a meditation/yoga room in our new house. Its such a blessing to have my own space and I was thinking about how I'd like to decorate it.

I thought I'd like to have a small altar - of powerful images to use as tools for opening my mind and reducing resistance.

I did a meditation on what I should have there - and strangely enough, the center piece was a mirror. It shocked me enough to come out of the meditation. A mirror? I thought, well, that's weird.

Then, when I asked a question, 'they' said it was to remind me that the work we do is about the self. Every fear, every resistance is our own resistance. For me (and my students) to remember that we create our selves at every moment and for me to be conscious of choice.

so - I'm looking for the 'right' mirror'.
