A little closer to my goal

As the first month comes racing in, and I have only five weeks left of my trip. I think of all I've accomplished, not only do I have my 200h teaching training I am now qualified in prenatal yoga and yoga therapy.

 The month had its challenges. Allowing Alessia become relaxed and at ease with Sudha her Minder. Alessia getting used to her surroundings, and understanding  she was not going to see all the people she is used too seeing daily.  Also the heat and the early mornings. Hurting my back, Doing my own daily practice, attending my classes and also doing hip opening and back bending classes. 

But it also had so many rewarding and exciting times. Watching Alessia come into herself, watching her socialise and chat to everyone form relationships and bonds. Seeing my practice develop, filling my head with new and exciting yoga knowledge. Meeting wonderful friendly peop
le. Exploring the shops the sites and tasting new and delicious food. Enjoying our daily coconut, where we chill out and chat and watch the world go by.





 This month has thought me so much, it  has opened my eyes to so many things good and bad. As I have one week between my courses ending and next course 300 hours teaching training beginning, I am a little apprehence of what Lies ahead. But I am throwing any worry over my shoulder and deciding I can only do what I can do. What will be will be, there is not ideal. 

I once again think how fortunate I am to be able to have this experience, regardless of the challenges it will throw at me.

I didn't think it could get any better,

As a second week comes and goes, a whole new meaning comes from my trip. Relaxation, acceptance, new possibilities. I let go of any concerns, worries and thoughts that are not helping me and my future. I'm enjoying every second of this experience. I've never enjoyed something so much as when I am in the room practicing my Asana.  

I am in that moment there is no outside world just the here and now and that pose. Every thought floats away and leaves me feeling completely at one with myself. Already I've meet some wonderful people who are making the trip even better.  Alessia is day by day coming into her own and is once more light hearted and fun. She is loving every moment. 

Practicing her yoga interacting with everyone and enjoying the ride. The knowledge I've acquired over the last two weeks in terms of yoga theory is amazing I'm so excited to put this knowledge to use and share it.  Last years trip was such a success, I worried  would this year be so good. But actually it is better. Alessia is older, she is happier and more relaxed and I feel so chilled.

 Mysore is such a wonderful beautiful place in India. Wonderful houses, wonderful people, wonderful clothes, jewellery and of course food. Two weeks in and seven to go I am so excited to think of everything I will learn over the coming weeks.

No expectations

What I've learned very early on is that you can have no

Expectations when traveling with a baby or a toddler. All your ideals need be be erased and all if 's and buts forgotten. Otherwise you are leading yourself into a hole of disappointment.
