9 years ago, when I took my first yoga teacher training, I never actually intended to teach. I had just started my yoga journey and was reaping the benefits personally, so I just wanted to immerse myself in my practice all day every day, and a teacher training ticked those boxes.
The few years following that, I dipped in and out of regular teaching, the imposter syndrome was strong! I never felt I fit the part. I wasn't 'together' enough or didn't look or act the way yoga teachers were 'supposed' to... (of course, I know that's all crap now!)
Part of my story: When covid arrived, I moved back to Ireland after nearly 15 years travelling the world. I didn't know where to begin... It took me a couple of years to finally build up the courage to start up my own classes again. But I missed the people you meet at yoga and I started to get sick of listening to myself making excuses.
I was nervous. I did it anyway.
And wow. Opportunities started to come my way, I made connections with amazing people. I became close with beautiful souls who believe in me-even on the days when I don't.
Amazing things continue to happen ✨️
I'm so grateful for yoga and the adventures it has taken me on. To every single person who crosses my path because of it. It's the gift that keeps on giving
I have never felt more at home in this world 🌎
Ok I kinda went off on one there 😆
The moral of the story is:
1. Get out of your comfort zone and
2. Stop and smell the roses
