Feet To The Fire!

Hey World!  I miss you!!!

I haven’t had the energy to put myself out on the internet lately.  The closing of the studio, the shift into pandemic life, the role of homeschool mom, the pressure of making every moment count, the breakdown, the pick back up, and then moment of realization that you’re not actually starting from square one all over again…but you do have to visit it again and clean it up.  

I’m not in the situation of several of my colleagues and close friends whose financial resources have dried up and they are in a position of having to support themselves and their family while surfing the financial standstill.  Subscribe to their channels, keep up your yoga, exercise, meditation practices.  Check out with Beth Zagurski with Body Archeology Method, Alicia Willemet, Mollie Wisner, Becky Barton, JoAnn Ray, Trish Little, Denise Jarreau, Chloe Amburgy, Noura Skakri, who are all teachers you have studied with at Yoga Path. There are 3 free videos of me teaching on the website. You can get there by clicking here .

For this girl, it has come to that point where I am bored with all my tried and true self-sabotaging tricks.  I’m tired of hearing myself think, say, the same excuses and and then do the same things. Its much easier and I'd much prefer to luxuriate a little longer is discussing the why I’m stuck, and continuing to acting like I’m still trying to figure it out.  This pandemic, like every other monumental challenge out there, reveals character; its strength, its integrity, and its intelligence.  

So, for me the pandemic party time is over…it wasn’t much of a party, just an annoying long transition to getting my big girl pants on.  It is time for tapas.  As translated by TKV Desikachar from Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, “tapas is a means by which we can keep ourselves healthy and cleanse ourselves inwardly.  When we have a practice of asana and pranayama we have a practice that influences the whole system.”

What’s Upcoming for Yoga Path???

• Teacher Training 200 YTT 2021 in the new Yoga Path home base…the garden shed for now…it will be a real room by 2021.

• A mini-online series for Building A Personal Practice.  More info on this next week!  

I miss everyone so much. Looking forward to when we can be together again. And remember…

Don’t be that person who stands too close, doesn’t wear an facemark in public, and throws plastic gloves on the ground.  WASH YOUR HANDS!

Love,

Kate
