Another reason ‘May’ will always mark a turning point for me…
�It was May 2020 when I laid down my first ‘100 days of yoga’ and just a few years later I committed to 200 hours of yoga teacher training…something completely out of my comfort zone & scared me senseless!
I had never taken that much time away from my family. Never relied so heavily on others to juggle the kids, the house, the daily rhythm of our lives. I was scared of failing, of spending so much money on something that might not “lead” anywhere.
But I threw myself in. Determined to soak up every moment, push through the aching body, the tiredness, the spiralling thoughts.
The pressure I put on myself was intense…I remember learning my child had ringworm and feeling crushed I hadn’t noticed earlier.
But I kept going, each day was an accomplishment, the final test overbearing to begin with, I settled in as I went, I had trained for this - I was ready even - though the trembling legs and shaking voice remained….but, I knew, this was exactly where I needed to be.
The growth over these past two years has been huge. I’m still learning, I’m still growing and here I am, on socials, wishing to inspire others to do the same.… to chase their dreams and their own “why not” moments.
To anyone wondering if it’s too late, too selfish, too scary, it’s not….You’re not.
