A New Chapter

My Dad took this picture last summer after I completed my teacher training. It looks as if I'm doing asana on the edge of the earth.

I've had some encouragement on the yoga front. In fact, "the yoga front" has always been encouraging. With minimal effort. But, then, maybe some of that is because I'm an actor and am used to a different kind of game.

At any rate, the yoga studio welcomed me back as a teacher. My old students were overjoyed to have me back. New students in the last two weeks have sung my praises to the manager, and wouldn't you know it? The studio wants me on as sort of their head teacher.

It is my intention to be a yogi for the rest of my life - to have it inform everything I do. I had it in the back of my mind that I would love for this to be my "day job" (though please know that I think of it as more than a job....it's my second career/passion). And with just the thought and the deed in place...something like this has rather fallen into my lap. This bit of news has encouraged me so much!

Things seem possible, now.

And.....thinking ahead.....wouldn't you love to be in a yoga studio that turned into a theatre at night.....and then back into a yoga studio?

I feel a little guilty writing about yoga as a job when I have so much to learn...and attaching money to the thing (I'm not making much yet, but some!) seems dishonest and selfish. But, this blog is about encouragement. It's about the manifestation of my dreams. I'll blog about my joy of teaching, the specifics of yoga, later on. I promise. Because there is much to say on the topic.

For now, I wish for all of you similar little signs from the universe that you are on the right track.

It does a heart good.

Namaste.
