A good start

I'm starting to feel like I just might get this yoga thing. Relax, breathe, let go. People have asked me how I feel about getting to the end of my teacher training, but I feel like the real work is just beginning! I have been practice teaching different people - my guinea pigs I call them and it's been going really well. I feel much more confident than I thought I would. Like, wow, all that stuff we've been doing for 8 or 9 months has really sunk in. I'm starting to realized things about my practice on my own, just little things, but things are clicking in there. Then in mysore I've gotten a lot of instruction to allow the breathing in my ribcage open and lengthen my spine.
Most importantly I feel that I am living the practice off of my mat. I feel love spreading not just for my fellow yogis, but for everyone I come across. I am doing so much reading about yoga and Buddhism and just feeling the connections and the interconnectedness. I am loving a quote from Thicht Naht Hahn's book Buddha Mind, Buddha Body that says "You are always with yourself. And you always have the capacity for happiness."
