Feeling so much better having attended a Therapeutic Yoga class during lunch today. The class is very well attended by students ranging from age 13 all the way to looks like, maybe 70’s. With nearly 50 students, I was surprised and then not so surprised. He masterfully creates the sense of safety and trust based on actual expertise – of course, people are drawn to that. I was inspired that there’s so much need out there that this teacher was able to respond to … it’s gentle and yet quite challenging; it’s relaxing but better than caffeine awakening, it’s calming and yet … super energizing. It’s quite the Yin & Yang and I loved it. This teacher led us to replenish ourselves physically, mentally and energetically. To me, the session rather reminded me of a class I took in Tokyo last summer – it’s caring and gentle but … challenging in a non-competitive way. You may even work up a light sweat:) <\/p>\n
Inspired, getting mini-presents ready tonight for the loyal students who practiced being “present” this year by simply showing up … it’s a gift for sure to have students who give me the opportunity to blend what I’ve learned and try things out. I am filled with gratitude for their true “flexibility” – here’s the next two days as we head into Christmas Eve …Quite saddened that I am no longer teaching the Sunday night restorative class I had the honor of holding space for the last nearly 3 years. Having attended the 3 Invitational sessions with Judith this year – irony of ironies, I don’t get to share all that knowledge in that particular style I love – Yet Sunday evening is a tough time slot …for me with the training and impending travels and subbing frowned upon…as attached and wistful as I was … sometimes one has to let go one thing to let something else enter … it looks to be a sign from the higher self.<\/p>\n
Besides, so happy for the lovely yogini who took over – it’s so sweet to have more yoga teachers who want to spread this kind of quiet yet powerful practice also. We are blessed:)<\/p>\n
