Stepping Out To Be Seen

“Seven of Fire - Courage - tell the story only you can tell. “
Eakins, Pamela; Kabbalah and Tarot of the Spirit, 2014, Sanfranciscobooks.us.
When I trusted my intuition and guidance to pack up everything and move to the Wairarapa I only had a vague idea of why I needed to move. It was clear that we were meant to be here but what was I meant to do? There is a lot of competition in the Wairarapa for yoga teachers and it is a small market. How could I make what I offered unique? I knew there was a quirky little room on the property that I could use to teach restorative yoga and yoga nidra for frazzled nervous systems or injured body’s or to guide students in how to move into stillness and rest within. I had learned more esoteric skills over the years that I found useful. The property itself had a lovely tranquil feel to it and was only a six-seven minute drive to Greytown or Carterton. So Tranquillity for Wellness was birthed.
When I started teaching yoga it was via the local community colleges so I didn't need to advertise, it was all done for me. Three years on, in 2005, I had an aah moment sitting at the dinning table and thought about running my own private class at the local primary school. That class ran for 18 years in a couple of different locations. I knew there was more to my journey that just teaching yoga and I had always kept my self ‘under the radar’ so to speak, using word of mouth and community centre advertising to bring in students.
To move away from Wellington and re-establish myself over in the Wairarapa has been a leap of faith. Over the Christmas break my hubby and I revamped my quirky tranquil space, I created a website, found a new business name and now I am exploring the courage required to promote myself. Not only as a yoga teacher but an intuitive with a lifetime of experience in exploring the self to promote wellness and well-being using yogic techniques as well as more esoteric / spiritual teachings.
The energy of the planet is shifting so too do I need to step up, shift out of old belief patterns, be seen, value my skills and take a risk. Phew!
