Summer is almost over - but you wouldn’t know that from Monica’s regular comment on the weather! This summer has been one of growth for both Matt and Monica. With yoga studios in Belgium allowed to reopen, and with Matt having completed a teacher training course, things have, inevitably, changed.
Have we been able to embrace this change, as yogis do? As the young people would say “it’s complicated”. Or maybe it isn’t. So will Matt teach, Monica wants to know… we discuss callings, gurus, “inner-gurus” and “proxy-gurus”. How do we cultivate the ability to listen to that voice inside that helps us make better decisions? How do we learn how to make decisions based on reality, rather than our fantasy of how we would like things to be? And how far do we go when we learn something new; how much of yoga can we absorb into the daily lives of “householders” with families, jobs, responsibilities?
And now that we can physically be with our friends, families, communities, how will we handle that? Is there something we can do in our personal daily practice that will help us to be open to the possibilities that are now appearing? And can we be kind to ourselves and learn from those incidents when we haven’t been calm, haven’t lived up to our own expectations, or failed to be the yogis we thought we were, or hoped we were?
