I AM ... divorced (past tense)
And I’m not going to talk about my ex’s anymore because they are all in my past. And each and every one of my ex has taught me a valuable lesson. I have two ex’s since my ex-husband and I have four ex’s before him.
This past week I hosted a yoga retreat in Tamarindo for four women.
Past tense.
In November I am hosting a yoga retreat for women in Tamarindo.
Future tense.
In the present, I am writing a blog.
I am - writing. Breathing. Living. ‘ing verb words showing action.
9000 thoughts pass by daily and I am working to discern the good from the bad (whatever that means to me) and I am choosing the thoughts I want to create by breathing life into the thought by turning it into words.
“I want you to come on a yoga retreat with me.”
Because - I am a good yoga teacher. I am a good reiki energy healer. I am a good meditation coach. I am a good retreat leader.
And you still have time.
My next yoga retreat starts November 10th around sunset in Tamarindo, Costa Rica.
We’ll do yoga, meditate, journal, and eat food all week long. I promise.
And - if November is not a good fit for you - due to other obligations or it’s just for women -
Then -
You still have time to reserve your space of 8 people (men & women) for my December Yoga & Relax Retreat.
I truly believe that if you want to do yoga with me you’ll find a way.
or - pick a low-hanging excuse?
Your body was gifted to you a birth and it’s the only one you have your entire lifetime.
Would yoga add mobility and ease of movement to your years? Is that important to you?
Could meditation help your anxious mind? Is that important to you?
Should Reiki help balance your Chakras? Is that important to you?
Do you know how to cleanse your energetic Aura? Is that important to you?
These are four techniques that I taught to the women who came to the October yoga retreat. Sustainable tools that they can use when they integrate back into their “normal” life back home. Because change starts from an internal dialogue and until you get to that, “I’m DONE” moment ( or maybe sooner if hitting rock bottom isn’t your jam) - you make excuses instead of changes, in my personal opinion.
So what is one action item you can accomplish today for your one-year plan of how you want to grow over 365 days?
Is it a retreat deposit so you have a week to look forward to in your future? Will a vacation bring you hope? This is why the deposit is important. It’s your first step. It’s your investment in “enough is enough” and I will put in a week’s worth of internal work so that I can be a better person towards myself and others after the week has passed.
I approach all yoga retreats the way I approach a yoga class as unique. I look and see who is here and then I do my best for the people in front of my feet.
Still, two retreats to choose from in your 2024 future :)
When you ask yourself - I AM . . . what naturally follows for you?
I am Virginia.
