Was able to slip into one of my favorite local yoga teacher’s class today and feeling so much better from it – even though it might feel as though I am trailing (by choice… smelling the roses on the path and caring those who need my care…), It’s good to be on the same path of teaching (& learning) with someone you feel a kindred spirit towards. I love to learn as much from those I respect.

This is Nancy’s Willpower Yoga workshop’s description:
We all make promises to ourselves that we find it difficult to keep. Psychologists now believe that willpower is like a muscle – the more it is exercised, the stronger it becomes in the long run. Find out more about why we are challenged to stay the course and discover ways to strengthen your resolve. This workshop is a unique combination of asana, discussion, guided meditation and yoga nidra (guided savasana) and is designed to help discover answers to the questions of why we behave the way we do, and provide techniques to help create better habits.

Isn’t it just what we all needed right before the holiday season? It’s just what I needed! Again, just like Dr. Hinohara we may all say this is common sense but that’s just it. We are far from being ignorant. We know what’s good for us but we do not necessarily do what we know is good for us. We need to explore why we trip up, why we fail, why we make the wrong choices. In this workshop, Nancy allows us that opportunity to explore the whys. She will be having more workshops and I highly recommend them. In fact, I will be first in line. While our styles are different, I believe our values and inspirations share the same source. Yes, I love to teach yoga but I also love to be a student with the right teacher – and in her class, I get to be on the receiver end and how I love that because with all her life experiences, she weaves a class that allows me to just let go. It’s like unwrapping a gift from a friend – it’s that feeling I love.
Thank you Nancy!
