If there was ever a time when meditation could rea If there was ever a time when meditation could really make a difference, itโ€™s now. On International Day of Meditation (today) take few moments to practice #mindfulness. Take a walk ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธout in nature. Grab your kids crayons ๐Ÿ– and so some coloring. Follow along with a #guided meditation on YouTube. Take 20 deep inhalationโ€™s and exhalations. When everything around you feels out of control, you can practice controlling your breath and quieting your mind. Have you meditated today? And if you havenโ€™t, will you? Pretty please with a ๐Ÿช on top? #purplelotusyoga #yogatraining #yogaforall #yogagoals #yogavibes #beherenow #presentmoment #mindfullife

#waybackwednesday My earliest memory of yoga is ti #waybackwednesday My earliest memory of yoga is tied to my first corporate training job. I was sent to the headquarters to conduct a workshop on goal setting and management. I was barely 27 staring down a conference table of "southern gentlemen" and somehow managed to win them over and get their buy-in. ๐˜•๐˜ฐ๐˜ต ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ด๐˜บ ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ด๐˜ฌ!โฃ โฃ During the goal setting activity I wrote out some examples on the white board. One of my goals was to try yoga. I seriously have no previous memory of even the word yoga. I don't know what planted the seed of wanting to give it whirl, it just popped out that day in the conference room. โฃ โฃ That was the summer of 1998. A couple of months later I took my first yoga class and it changed the trajectory of my life. When I look back at it now I'm surprised-not-surprised to realize training and yoga were so intertwined even from the beginning.โฃ โฃ All of those skills I learned as a corporate trainer carried over into yoga. All those skills I used to win over even the most skeptical audience I brought into yoga. Everything I learned in a customer service training in college (which is how I became interested in training) I used in my teacher trainings.โฃ โฃ ๐—”๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—œ'๐—บ ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐˜† ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐˜๐—ต๐—ผ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ-๐—ธ๐—ป๐—ผ๐—ฐ๐—ธ ๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚. ๐—›๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฑ ๐—ฎ ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ธ ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ ๐—บ๐˜† ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ด ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—›๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฃ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ฎ ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐—ด๐—ฎ ๐—ช๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ธ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ผ๐—ฝ? ๐—Ÿ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ธ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐—•๐—ถ๐—ผ.โฃ โฃ #wisdomwednesday #wisewednesday #wellnesswednesday #wellnesswednesdays #femaleceo #womenwednesday #wednesdaywellness #purplelotusyoga #yogateachertraining #yogateachertrainer #yogateacherlife #yogabusiness #yogabiz #yogaworkshop #yogaworkshops #lifestylebusiness #ytt #ytt200 #yogagoals #yogalifestyles
