needing to serve

This coming weekend, Satellite’s first teacher training begins. Kourtney and I are busy with the prepwork. It’s overwhelming and exciting. The exciting part is that we'll be helping our students to teach yoga modalities to people other than those who go to a studio and pay for yoga training. Oftentimes, one of the first things that I need to teach is the “need”: making people aware of the need for stillness of mind; of the need for self-empowerment over stress; of the need for proactive healthcare that involves nutrition, exercise, and a positive mental attitude; of the need to realize what feeling good really feels like. I always like to end my
sessions with this thought: we need to serve, for our own personal healing and to feel our connectedness with the rest of humanity. This is karma yoga, a spiritual path that we can walk on with our clients.
