mirror mirror

mirror mirror on the wall
who is the yogi with the least faith of all?
ME!

so yes times a changing. now we have to set up in the yoga room according to our small groups. today i was one of the trainees in the second to last row. for someone who is a creature of habit and loves her token front row spot it was a tough class. not only did i focus on the girls crack in front of me to keep balanced but a woman beside me had a cough and at times wasn't covering here mouth. at one point in the class she was turned around sitting facing me(i have no idea why) while i was in camel. hello yogis?!!! for the love of all that is good in this world can we just co-exist peacefully and have yoga etiquette. you know about yoga etiquette- the little blurb on your studios home site or flyer you hand to newcomers. well this just in- we are not newcomers- we are future teachers!! i know i should be more compassionate and patient but come on-we have to represent. which is also why i am a bit peeved at myself. i should have more faith in my training, my practice and where i've come from than to always need the mirror for guidance. it's those small things though i feel i need to control. i know letting go will come with time but honestly i'm not there yet.

as they say so often- trust the process.
