officially a yoga teacher! yippee!

What an incredible month! I have learnt an awesome amount about yoga and I have still only scratched the surface. I met some fantastic, inspiring people and really enjoyed completing the course with them all. Eating delicious organic home grown food everyday made me really appreciate the time and effort the gardeners and cooks put into our three daily meals. I have never felt so healthy and look forward to maintaining this healthy, happy and positive outlook on life.
During the last few weeks we learnt about how yoga could be taught to senior citizens, children and working people to help them all in wonderful ways. we got into groups to plan different workshops for each target group. I was in the children's group and we put together a workshop about being kind to ourselves and each other. The rest of the group had to act like 6-8 years olds and the workshop went really well! We made the kids draw and they made positive self affirmations and then we told a fable about forgiveness using different poses throughout the story which had animal names. For example, one character was a lion so when we introduced the lion everyone did the lion's pose. we got super feedback and I really enjoyed the progress. We all passed the exams and with record results!
So after the ceremony yesterday where we got our certificates we all headed off on our separate ways and I am now in jakarta waiting for Christian so we can fly to bali together! I can't believe it is my last month travelling but I am excited to see indonesia! Surfing, snorkelling, trekking, yoga on thr beach and trying the local delicacies!
