My life keeps getting better. Teaching yoga to all of you beautiful people was so much fun. I was so resistant and scared most of the day telling myself stories about how i was not good enough. But i knew as i was doing that that i was good enough i was just in this battle with myself - that usual battle.
And i took care of myself and meditated and just went through the heavyladen resistant fear muck into lesson planning and inspiration - reading about Vanda Scaravelli, the 83 year old Italian yogini, who wrote this beautiful book about how our bodies are wavelike and elastic and supple and how yoga gives us freedom and how freedom in Sanskrit comes from the same root as LOVE so essentially in Sanskrit freedom and love are synonyms, and I started to feel free and lighter and had faith that i can do this. and in my 24 hours a day meditation (12 step literature) the reading was about trusting that you can do ANYTHING. And so we did it. We had one naked student which had me thinking seriously about this naked yoga idea. I think it may really be right for me to teach it. But right now I am just thinking out loud.
I love you all. Thank you for giving me a space to shine.
Love K
