Crying.

Since March, I feel like I've been trying to play catch up with everything. Although the live sessions and guest lectures I was able to attend felt like it was right in that moment, I'm trying to catch up with modules, recordings and now I'm seeing all these forum posts I need to catch up on too. But I understand all our processes and journeys are so different but we can still come back to center and have this amazing connection. I was watching the 3/13 replay and the convo between Stan and Joey, it felt like I was present in that moment and it was so fun to witness it. I'm finally seeing it from the other end of the spectrum through recordings that although we weren't present in that exact moment, we still belong, if that makes sense. I also just finished the practice for Dharana (concentration) but boy have I been doing myself a disservice multitasking! Hehe. While I feel like multitasking gets me ahead of the game, I can provide better quality (& a more regulated nervous system) if I just lock in on that one thing. And what am I rushing for?! I think that's the big lesson for me here. So worried about time that everything gets rushed instead of just savoring every moment whether it's so much fun or so mundane. I guess I've been so overwhelmed with everything, overstimulated and I'm undiagnosed but pretty sure I am ADHD, I have a tendency to fall for distractions so I don't always feel pressed for time. My final is tomorrow so that's another layer of having to make sure I stick with all my deliverables. This YTT has been eye-opening, making me accountable for where I can do better not just for myself but to also be of service for everyone else, and its also been life changing for me. (Crying.) I think if there was a poll for the biggest crybaby for this cohort, I feel like I would beat Alejandro in this category. LOL. I just want to say THANK YOU. Thank you Jen for leading with compassion and grace. Much like we are giving the space to make our students build their own yoga practice, you are giving us the space to build our own teachings with keeping the limbs of yoga in mind and also an awareness of how we can not only be better yoga teachers but better human beings as our world needs it so much. Thank you cohort for opening yourselves up - everything you have spoke up on, typed in the chat, getting to know you better in the break out rooms, or messaged through WhatsApp, I'm honored and touched to be able to be a part of this to witness YOU. You make me better with everything you share about your own journeys. Atma Namaste. ❤️  PS - My final reflection project had each and every single one of you in mind and know that it is dedicated to you.
