Yesterday evening I honored myself with some solo yoga. Music. Movement & Me. There are times when I teach to a roomful of people and I feel like I’m not able to provide them with what they need. These feelings are unproductive and unsubstantiated -it is the ego and I am in constant battle trying to curb these feelings of self doubt and inadequacy. However, when I take some alone time and I become my own student, I realize that all is well. I do the best that I know how. This journey isn’t about being perfect. It’s about showing up and moving your body and quieting your mind. Let go of the negative self talk. We are all guilty of feeling not good enough. The key is acknowledging these thoughts and shooing them out…and still showing up and practicing. And when these judgements reappear, I ask myself this question: Why do I practice yoga? My answer is always the same: It’s fun, it’s challenging, it’s transformative and most of all I love how I feel. Resetting my perspective. Over and over and over again. This practice is helpful in day to day life too. We are better than we give ourselves credit for. #soloyoga #me #yoga #justbe #mayitbeofbenefit
