Yoga-In-Training: Introducing the journal
A list of the small stuff
Start where you are and keep going. It’s a great mantra for us all. Just get going and keep going.
So, that’s what this yogi-in-training is doing. Taking small steps, easy steps that feel good right away to move me a tad closer, any amount, to where I’m headed – a wildly successful yogi and business entrepreneur. (We can move small but there’s no reason to think small.)
Now, it’s hard to see how those little things add up, so I’m tracking them. I want to see how this all unfolds. What will be the long-term results of doing the work, showing up…?
Introducing the journal…. log it, blog it, just get it down on paper/screen and watch life change…
A list of the small stuff. Some of it, so far…
The perfect lesson at Perfect Health
Perfect Health Graduates February 2015 And probably not so perfect post…..oh well. Seems odd that during the last stretch of teacher training for Deepak’s Perfect Health programme, one lesson to really learn was – ‘don’t try to be so perfect’. Let me explain. It’s February 16, 2015 and I’m back in La La Chopra…
The Betrayal
I’m cheating on my mentor. There – I said it. I’m still ‘Living with Deepak’, but (oh dear) I’ve jumped into bed with Mastin Kipp. It all started on August 28 when Mastin emails me asking me saying he wants to talk about my purpose. (I’d signed up for his newsletter The Daily Love…
What happens when you get home from a Chopra Center Perfect Health yoga and meditation retreat?
First you realise you didn’t travel home alone. True, you may have done some work on silencing your ego – but now you know it was only to make room for a whole new conversation – this time with your deeper self. In Chopra world you got real comfy with its nurturing voice. It…
The jump
My very gorgeous friend once told me that sometimes life has to hollow you out before it can fill you up again. Just over a month ago I hollowed out. On Tuesday, October 29 I resigned from my job. I walked away from a career that I once thought defined me. With no net…
Yogi in training. How to uncover your true self.
I read this week that the desire to live authentically is a natural drive within us all. My true self has always been seeking to show itself. I hear bells ringing. So, has it? Let’s see. Have I always expressed my unique nature – damn right. Have I sought to break free from past…
How do you become a yogi? What’s the plan?
How do you become a Yogi? Is it something you train for – set goals, work up a schedule… What steps are required to make it happen, what order, for how long? I like, no LOVE, lists. If I’m starting something I always have list and a plan. Whether that’s a 12 week triathlon…
Yogi in training. Step one: Sow seeds
As the saying goes – If you always do what you’ve always done you will always get what you’ve always got. So, it’s time to make different choices. It’s time to accept that I am the author of my story and I can turn the plot in any direction I want. According to my…
Does blogging create personal abundance?
New age guru and physician Deepak Chopra is my new guilty pleasure. According to Deepak we can have a life full of joy, health, a sense of purpose, anything our heart desires – True Abundance. We don’t need to seek our desires out, we just have to open up to what’s already there and…
