Yoga means something different to everyone. To some it’s a way of life, something you
take off the mat and incorporate in every aspect of your daily routine; To
others it’s a fad, something only temporary you visit on Wednesday nights at
7pm…near the door…fifteen minutes early (no one better be in YOUR spot!). Whatever your mindset, whatever your reason
it’s okay. Getting on your mat, practicing when you can, or when you feel like
it, is enough. As a yoga teacher it
isn’t my job to criticize or question your motives for coming to class. I’m proud of you for being there, for showing
up for that hour, and simply being on your mat.
That’s all anyone can ever ask of us isn’t it? “Being” there. Truly setting an intention to be present for those who need our love most. Yoga has
taught me just that. It’s made things
less foggy, and is a consistent reminder to “be.” To be the best wife, mother, daughter, sister,
and friend, I, Allison, can be. I fall
short often, but allowing change to occur, retaining the desire to improve, and getting on
the mat is what matters. Keep
practicing, yogis! I’ll be right alongside with ya ;)
