So I think I finally have made those decisions I was talking about. I've let them simmer all summer, which is really hard for me as I tend to be a "what was I thinking?" kind of girl as opposed to a "now what makes the most sense for my future?"....
I want my work to be joyous. I don't want to feel like I don't have a life outside of work. I want to do what is best for my students and clients. I want to be available for them when they need me and love being there. So the question was not what to do--I do love teaching yoga and doing Reiki so it's easy to be joyous about it. I am completely in my element, or should I say "in my skin"? when I am healing. The question was when? How to add without going overboard? And where? Fortunately, I've been getting some really clear SIGNS lately about where to put my energies....
3/4 of my family have been doing A Course in Miracles (3 guesses on who's sitting it out LOL) I was up half the night worrying about my decisions and re-thinking them over and over. I was also very concerned about aforementioned 1/4 but that's another story. My lesson today was These thoughts don't mean anything. Seems pretty clear to me.
So. I will add 2 classes a week, one is attached to another (Tuesday 5:30 Gentle/Senior/Chair) and one will be in my back yard! (Saturday 9am Sun Salutations) How fun! If it becomes popular, we will move it but Saturday morning classes are usually pretty hit or miss so I want to try it out first. We have 2 screen houses so we won't have to worry with bugs. Now rain is another thing but really, wouldn't that feel nice on your face?
I will add an event at each of the places I teach: A Restorative Class at 5678 and a Couples Class at World Gym. And I will start the Meditation Tea Circle I've been thinking of for a long time. That too, will be at my house but doesn't have to be outside. My Reiki room is ready and I have plenty of space for private classes...here, there & everywhere. All of my students will be able to go to any of my classes at any of my venues. I have worked out special rates and what not. Yolinna's Yoga spells it all out.
I'm excited. I feel like I am finally moving forward again. As wonderful as summer has been (best of my life!) I find myself getting ready to start working again, I've started to feel kinda lazy and stagnant and I've started obsessing about moving furniture which is always a clear sign that it's time to start working again.
I feel really good about the direction the Spirit Group is taking too. We are each kinda doing our own thing and not feeling tied to any particular place or path. Now....about that spiritual center.....
