November 2011 Review

This month went by quickly. The month started off with me being upset at my dad. Then I arrived in Koh Samui, Thailand, treating the teacher training course as a yoga retreat. My stress level increased as soon as I realized the first exam was coming up. At that point my stress remained steady until tonight. Finally releasing all that stress made me realize how stressed I really was.

I’ve learned a lot this month, though it’s hard to articulate exactly what. I used to think of yoga as just postures, but now yoga’s more of a lifestyle, philosophical, and spiritual guideline.

Many questions I didn’t even know I had were answered about the postures.

Many of my flaws were highlighted. Many of my strengths were highlighted.

It was a month of subtle change, cleansing, injury, and growth.
