Hi lovelies,
When I first started my small business I had big dreams and visions of where I wanted it to flow, what I wanted to bring to the community, the niche and people I desired to connect with and support, and the impact that I wanted to leave after sharing space in a particular way.
My very first venture as a yoga teacher was sharing space with a private client who undertook the Trauma Informed series and then through The Blue Butterfly Institute providing the series to some very special Chrysalites.
Branching out to regular yoga classes I then found more connection with the community, a sense of drive, enthusiasm for the unknown, experience with successes and falling short, I learnt that the ebbs and flows of life and responsibility change rapidly and sometimes that calls for knowing when to step back or let go where needed.
My heart and my soul were being fed with purpose, growing connections and friendships, some laughter and knowing that I could hold space even for an hour for beautiful humans who needed that time for themselves.
Then, I became quite unwell with the flu and that led to something that is taking a little longer to completely heal. This gave me time to slow, reflect, take note of what I’m truly feeling, whats working, what aligns and what doesn’t, where I may have lost my alignment with my vision and where I can possibly carve out time in my busy life to come back to what serves my purpose.
With a full life having a family to nurture, a home to maintain, the mental load of being a mother, a wife, as well as a small business owner and with my work at The Blue Butterfly Institute it has become clear during the last few weeks where I have been putting a mass of my energy and where my energy needs to be to find that alignment once again with working with trauma survivors and the community who may be living with mental health struggles.
I know this is where I should be in my work in a larger capacity, but time is limited and as I tell others to carve out that time for what they love and have a passion for, I also need to honour that for myself.
So, having said all of that, I will be stepping back from hall classes until further notice while I give myself the time to completely heal and will be taking that space to restructure the business, services, programs and supports, while also working closely with TBBI and resuming my Counselling qualification.
I will be offering pop up classes and events in Buxton, private sessions/services within the Wollondilly and will be offering opportunities to share space and time on the mat. So, keep an eye out on the FB page to keep updated for those offerings and events.
I will still be active on the FB page and will keep you all posted on the restructure, progress and journey of the new Grounded Flow.
I would love to extend a huge thank you to those that have supported me and my small business by attending classes, sharing in a practice or private service and most importantly, those that have become friends through the connection of yoga.
I hope you all are well, loved and appreciated, and if you feel you aren’t, know that I see you and I appreciate and see you for everything you are.
