I am so sorry that this post is a day late but I was having technical difficulties and wanted to make sure that I have alllll the footage from this weekend to share with you.
I am excited to say that I am officially a 500 Hour Yoga Teacher; I can't believe this day has finally arrived. A year ago, this moment seemed so far away but it honestly went by in a blink of an eye.
This weekend was filled with so much joy, laughter, hugs, and of course tears.
I wish that I could put into words what this journey has meant to me but instead I wrote a poem which I recited at Graduation:
Magic Carpet
I
first stepped on my magic carpet when I wanted to escape from realty
I
was sad, broken, and needed a new friend
I
didn’t know the destination but I was ready for the journey
I
sat on my carpet, closed my eyes, and let the adventures begin
I
saw camels, lions, and cows oh my!
Sometimes
I just sat on my carpet and rode the tides of emotions
Tears
were shed but my carpet never told my secrets
Days
and weeks went by and my carpet began to collect dust
But
when I snapped my wrist and let it unfold it didn’t ask any questions
It
just said “welcome home”
I’ve
been riding my carpet for over 10 years and we’ve hit some bumps and turbulence
but here we stand
Sharing
our adventures with others in hopes that they too find their magic carpet and
soar like we have
