Can You Remember Who You Were Before The World Told You Who You Should Be

Can You Remember Who You Were Before The World Told You Who You Should Be

Stumbled upon this quote by Charles Budowski via Thrive Global 
Reposted on on my personal IG but I think it deserves more attention and more thought.

When did we forget to play? When did we start caring what the world things of us?

In Baptiste Yoga, we are given access to discover the Lie we tell ourselves since young, which we believed was the Truth of ourselves.⠀

My lie was I’m a bad girl and I’m not good enough.⠀

The ME before I gave a DAMN about what other people think of me.

One Simple Way to Say I Love You Without Saying I Love You

One Simple Way to Say I Love You Without Saying I Love You

Let me ask you - 

Is there someone in your life that for some reason or another, you have difficulty saying "I love you" to them? And you want to. But the words just refuse to come out of your lips.

This week I want to share with you my deepest darkest secret. 

I... used to have difficulty saying these 3 words.

I can throw them out with the best of them - to my husband, to my close friends. But the one person, or group of persons that I really want to say it to - were my sisters.

What has it this got to do with Baptiste Yoga? Well I stumbled upon this gem of a Ted talk video after my Level 1, and that changed my life.

Rediscovering my Human-Self | Baptiste Level Three (2018)

Rediscovering my Human-Self | Baptiste Level Three (2018)

This is not a review of the Baptiste level 3 training. Instead I share with you my learnings, my discoveries, my experiences and my reflections from this yoga life teacher training. Warning: It’s a very long post.

You may or may not ever attend a baptiste yoga class or Baptiste training, but be willing to drop what you know, and just be in pure listening. You never know, you might discover something new about yourself.

My biggest takeway is discovering what my life is for. My life is for empowering my family and my community to live life courageously from the heart. With purpose and kind determination.
