Gratitude Post
This morning, something beautiful unfolded, while setting up my computer before class, three friends walked in—new clients, sent to me by Helio Lobo, who shares the space at Lagoon Studio on the island. His open-heartedness and generosity moved me deeply. There was no fear in his actions, he had no desire to claim clients—just an open presence of helping me and the new clients.
It reminded me of the incredible compassion I experienced from Melanie Beaumeister and Barbara Eksteen at The Move Community at the Catholic Church, while I was at the Red Cross Hospital with my daughter, they stepped in to help teach my clients—expecting nothing in return. Within days, most of my clients had found a new home in their studio.
And their kindness didn’t stop there. They helped move my equipment from a space I could no longer access, storing what they could. The rest was collected by Paula Viljoen, my yoga teacher, and Werner & Ilze Bronkhorst.
To witness such open-heartedness is humbling. It brings a soft, radiant feeling that stays with me. I truly believe that each of these beautiful souls will continue to grow in wealth, health, and love.
Thank you for showing me what community really means. You’ve touched my heart.
