A proud moment, surrounded by the natural beauty of Mother Earth, feeling the warmth and love that comes from a group of people pulled together with one common goal in mind – to delve deeper into themselves through yoga.
I knew my yoga teacher training course would be tough, but I didn’t quite realise how much I would be mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually challenged.
Throughout my teacher training, I felt as if I had allowed myself to be opened up and laid bare, accepting through the process that to change, to heal and to grow I had to let go of all that I was carrying around that no longer served me. In time it would be slowly chipped away and left in the dust.. behind me, for good this time.
So much beauty came up and out of me, so much healing and so much understanding of who I am as a person. I allowed healing into the deep crevices of my being. I came away feeling restored, re-energised and so much more “Claire”. All this from “just” yoga.
Yoga is so much more than just exercise, it’s a pathway and a journey inwards to the very source of who we are as humans. It’s a lifestyle, a practice, a belief in the greater good. It’s a union of your inner and outer self. It’s beautiful. It’s love.
Come and practice.
