S2-E4: Why do compliments make us cry? A huge insight from my yoga teacher training.

A relaxed partner yoga class on a Saturday morning, what could possibly make us all leave crying?!

We head into our first Saturday morning class after a busy, intense first week! We’re all expecting a relaxed partner yoga class, so what could possibly make us all leave crying?!

There are around 20 gorgeous women as part of the Ashtanga-Vinyasa YTT I joined in May (I did my training at Sampoorna in Agonda (Goa, India) and enjoyed it SO MUCH), and it was such a precious experience to spend a month soaking in this beautiful, feminine energy.

There were a few key moments during the training where I really realised how starved we are of genuinely being seen and perceived by a group of people that appreciate us, and having them express openly and authentically the impact that we’ve had on them - this podcast episode is a dive into those experiences and they affected all of us!

This episode is an invitation to be much freer in expressing these things in our own lives with the people we love and appreciate, we have no idea how powerful our words are, how profoundly moving it is to be seen and appreciated and have someone put it into words.

It requires a specific vulnerability to be able to express freely, and it requires a specific vulnerability to accept graciously: these are two life-changing skills to learn and practice!

Sending you love and warmth, and the most sincere delight at having you here listening!
