After the Kids Yoga Teacher Training last weekend a couple of teachers were very honest about feeling stuck in their business development. They felt like they knew what they were supposed to do, but they just couldn’t seem to go ahead and do it.
I’d like to dedicate this post to all those who have a dream but don’t know how to get started making it a reality.
Life needs purpose. No Matter what has happened in the past, it has brought you to today. There are no mistakes. Live today from the inside out. Let your creativity bubble up from inside. Follow your heart’s passion and it will lead you to your destination.
Keep your mind on a short leash. Don’t let your mind distract you from going where you want to go. Don’t let the puppy set the course for your walk!
Then when you go to bed at night you will feel the exhaustion of a life well lived. When you lay in bed at night, drift into sleep imagining what you want tomorrow to be, not what you are afraid it will be.
Spend your time with people who uplift and inspire you. When you are around like minded individuals creativity and inspiration abound. Like this song that spontaneously grew during the practice classes at the training. Everyone thought it was a great song to end a kids class with. Even though it’s a traditional kids song, there is truth there.
Here are the lyrics to the traditional version and the Yoga version:
The more we get together, together, together,
The more we get together the happier we’ll be.
Cause your friends are my friends and my friends are your friends
The more we get together the happier we’ll be.
The more we do our yoga, our yoga, our yoga
The more we do our yoga the happier we’ll be.
Cause your pose is my pose and my pose is your pose
The more we do our yoga the happier we’ll be.
Cause your breath is my breath and my breath is your breath
The more we do our yoga the happier we’ll be.
Cause your light is my light and my light is your light
The more we do our yoga the happier we’ll be.
Got any suggestions for new verses for this song?
Cause your ______ is my _______ and my ______ is your ______.
What do you do when you feel stuck?

Love this post … and the song, too! Usually, when I feel stuck it is because I am trying too hard. So, I get on my yoga mat and LET IT GO. It is not always instantaneous or even an obvious moment of “un=sticking” but I sure feel better after yoga and that ALWAYS helps.
I will try this song with the kiddos soon. Thanks!

Thanks for the inspirational words Aruna.

Congrats on your SITS Day! btw – one of their links goes back to your old blogspot account instead of linking directly to this one… the last link in the SITS post… didn’t check the others

Thanks for the catch Heather – I fired off an e-mail to see if it could be corrected.

Here is an add on to the song:
Cause your energy is my energy and my energy is your energy
The more we do Yoga the happier we’ll be.
