I passed my anatomy test! 20/25! Not my best but considering I struggle with the subject already, I think that's a pretty good effort. Teacher training is progressing considerably fast given that we are already one week through. It's so fun to wake up each morning and realize that I can start my day with yoga and end my day with yoga. I'm also enjoying the relationships that are forming between other teacher trainers. Being together with the same group of people 10 hours a day can sometimes be taxing but with this group I feel as if since we are all striving for the same goal there's no competition or negative energy. Our collaborative effort to grow together and learn makes training that much more exciting!
Having said that I think it's important to recognize those around us who believe in us enough to support our efforts. When I first told my parents I was quitting my job to complete a yoga teacher training program, they were slightly taken aback. I had worked so hard in graduate school and in job hunting to get to the place where I was. Suddenly leaving that comfort and security behind made even me nervous, so it's natural that they would be skeptical about the outcome. And yet they support me completely and understand that my decision ultimately rests behind my desire to strive for more in life.
And each and every day I am grateful for Gabe and his understanding in my love for yoga. He could easily have brushed it off as a menial undertaking, or some crazy idea just to get myself out of the corporate world, but he believes in what I am doing and having that support is crucial especially when I come home tired, sweaty, and hungry.
In addition, I am grateful and humbled by each and every one of you who have expressed encouragement and support! Thank you for believing in my intentions and motivating me to complete each day.
