Set Higher Standards by YogiRavi

(Baron Baptiste and I on the final day!)

I re-entered my orbit this week, after a wonderful week of yoga followed immediately by a few days of business meetings. Baptiste Level 1 Teacher Training was incredibly challenging, in all the right ways. Physically, emotionally, mentally.

A few key distinctions I picked up from this week with 142 amazing yoga friends:

• Your body can go farther, longer and harder than you think.
• Your attitude and outlook on life will determine your reality.
• The most important question we have in life is “Who am I?” Ponder this daily.
• Approach every moment with an “empty cup” and the world will fill it with more that you’ve imagined.
• Our “stories” have run or lives in the past, but the future can be different.
• Teaching in fun and I have an gift for doing so that must be shared.

I head to Level 2 Teacher Training in a few weeks (in Montana). Round 2 will focus on even more “inner work,” that is to say, improving our ability to be present and teach from our hearts.

Tomorrow evening I head off to start my Level 1 Teacher Training in Baptiste Power Yoga. I’ll be away for about 9 days, in the Catskills (upstate New York, near Albany) with no access to a computer. This means no blogging.

I’m looking forward to this training and whatever may come from it.

Talk to everyone when I return!

Namaste,

Ravi
