✨🌛 Multiple Perspectives -
This week's theme for classes is based on the Super New Moon in Ta**us on Saturday. Whether you are moon-y or not the energy of being invited to ground and reflect is generally a winner as modern life often doesn't leave space for this unless you create it.
The idea of multiple perspectives came from when we are ungrounded and anxious it is possible we are very rigid thinking about one possible reality and concerned with that or overanalyzing behaviours when there may be multiple reasons for any given statement/interaction/response. We create our own reality, we tell ourselves a story based on past experiences and assumptions and what if we allowed ourselves to acknowledge there are different perspectives and different possibilities then just the one. Perhaps we can be more present and grounded in this reflection.
Interestingly, I had my own experience of this in class. I had a new yogi, whose energy was very positive after class and she commented 'You are just making it up as you go along aren't you'. My initial response was aren't we all in life with a chuckle. And I jokingly referenced my stick men on my mat. Next was 'oh but you don't look at that in class though do you'. And a 'Of all the classes I've been to in multiple countries I've never been to a yoga class like this before'.
My perspective on this, due to the positive energy in her voice was that this was all a good thing. I've found my voice and uniqueness as a teacher, my classes are playful and joyful so they seem spontaneous and engaging. Some other yogis who heard the discussion hadn't taken it with this outlook and informed me it's clear I plan the intentions, themes, music, energy thoughtfully (thanks guys 🙏🏻).
Your perspective alters your experience, maybe try looking at things from multiple angles to enhance it. Side note 😉, each YWP is carefully planned and practiced using knowledge of seasonal shifts, TCM, Aruyveda, anatomy and care for people in my sessions. I will veer from this plan adding things from personal practices & depending who is in front of me. I like to look at my students not my plan where I can.
