i am grateful - for my imperfections

May 31, 2016/ Katlin Robinson

i am grateful for my imperfections

raw and messy at times.

in my youth they cast shadows

of doubt and self-loathing.

in the ?wisdom? of my life's afternoon sky

they are the root of my vulnerability

and my empathy.

they have brought me to humble.

they will fuel my courage.

i will befriend them.

What imperfections are you befriending? What drives your courage?

Leave me a message and let me know.

ENROL NOW

Next Wednesday, November 24th at 7pm I will be hosting a complimentary information session on the upcoming Yoga for Mental Health Teacher Training. Registration link is in my profile. Here is a preview of what I'll be talking about.... Trauma informed care is getting a lot of attention in all caring modalities. I believe that in order to be trauma informed we must look at the intersection between trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, systems of oppression, consumerism and more. We need to be mental health informed! Yoga that supports mental health is more than just practices - it's a way of thinking that allows teachers to ask the right question as they plan a class and cultivate a way of approaching their teaching so, to the best of their ability, their classes are supporting everyone who walks through the door. It’s about recognizing who might be showing up to your class, what disregulation looks like, what to do and say if someone is being activated, how to use authentic inclusive language. As a YOGA teacher it is also about understanding the deep history of Yoga philosophy and mental health.
