Has anyone been feeling like they are outgrowing something lately? A past version of self, a career, a relationship, even the city or the home that you live in.
We all move through life’s patterns and waves, and the beautiful part of being a human is learning not only to keep ourselves afloat in those waves, but learning to swim in and navigate them.
As I learn to move through life’s waters as a more empowered, knowledgeable, self-assured version of myself, this sentiment has been growing and letting me know that it’s wanting to be shared.
My role of yoga TEACHER is taking a much desired shift back to yoga STUDENT.
For the past 3 years I’ve been on the fulfilling journey of guiding others through the practice of yoga. I’ve led beginners, life-long yogis, kids, 90-year olds, and everyone in between through practice, and have enjoyed every single one.
But, I’ve forgotten about myself a bit along the way. My personal practice feels foreign most days, and the tools I teach to others feel harder to tap into than they used to. Making time for a short flow for myself (that isn’t spent planning or sequencing for a class I’m about to teach) has not been on the top of my list, as I spend my days juggling several other roles and the start of a new business with my fiancé.
So, I’d say that my decision to take a pause in my role of yoga teacher doesn’t come lightly, but in a way, it does exactly that.
I feel a lightness in knowing that this is not the end of my journey. A lightness in making the decision to pause and return when I feel ready. A lightness in knowing that the relationships I’ve forged are here to stay. And a lightness knowing that I’ve helped to bring a little more light and ease to others 💫
So if we’ve met along this journey, just know that I see you and remain here for you 💛 I am looking forward to taking the time to come back to myself and my practice, so I can better guide others through their own. Thank you. See you soon 🌞
