This is my story down the yogic path, i know
Yoga is different for everyone, but for me it is magical and helped me
grow from a shy, scared , nervous, even stubborn person into a person
who can let go of ego, can now be in front
of a class and teach the one thing that has saved her from herself. I
had real life issues that we all have in our life and the path to become
a yoga teacher wasn't what i was looking for but i needed to find
myself and needed a direction for my life and therefore my family.
looking back i see my growth with yoga and as a teacher, pretty much
like a tree, where the concept uplifts the interior life to walk tall.
The tree – our body – grows up through the root, stem, sap, crown and
birdsong, through the seasons.
I have the joy of meeting
different people and realizing that we are all coming to a yoga class
for different reasons and i have meet numerous students who are in the
same situation that i was in when i started my yogic path, we share
tails and i see the sparkle in their eyes that there is hope or light at
the end of their tunnel as there was for me, and all because they came
to a yoga class and meet the amazing many teachers out in the yoga
community that have become there saviors and all due to caring,
compassion and encouragement through their teaching skills.
I
can feel the growth welling up inside me as a teacher and confidence
grows with each class i teach, i am more grounded and believe in myself
so much more now than when i started my teacher training. All my class
mates will know what i am talking about and agree with my words.
I love to able to share with people the one thing i needed to help me
find myself and hope that Yoga can be for others the one thing it is for
me.
Yoga is a different path to each and every one of us but
to me it is a magic light that has been lit inside my mind, body and
soul and i am grateful each day that i am am able to do something i love
and feel happy inside.
