It’s been a wonderful year long journey! I went to Costa Rica in March 2018 and completed training as a Let Your Yoga Dance Teacher. In September, 2018 I began a 200 hour yoga teacher training program at my local yoga studio, Flourish Yoga + Wellbeing, in Fishers, Indiana. On March 3, I graduated!!!!
I am already including yoga in my body movement group for eating disorder patients at Charis Center for Eating disorders. And I am looking forward to starting to teach Let Your Yoga Dance at Flourish and to helping with their yoga nidra offerings. My long term goals are to incorporate yoga and expressive art therapy into workshops and retreats.
While doing this yoga training, I have also been working with my dreams, with the help of a Natural Dreamwork practitioner. (www.thenaturaldream.com) The combo of dreamwork and yoga is incredibly healing and transformative for me. As yoga helps me unravel and release old conditioned reactivity and blockage within my body, the dreams are helping me untangle the emotional and spiritual wounds within my soul. I am now a practitioner in training in the Natural Dreamwork tradition. And so, though I graduated from the yoga teacher training, my spiritual learning journey is far from ending.
Before teaching my first yoga class, I dreamed that a group of humpback whales were arriving at the yoga studio and would fill the whole space. At first I reacted – there will be no space for me! Where will I teach yoga?! Then I realized the whales are arriving for my yoga class! So much living, ancient embodied energy, showing up in to be with me, to celebrate this journey and the new growth and vitality it is bringing me.
I look forward to many more postings here about my new yoga and dreamwork path and how they deepen and expand upon creative healing work with others.
