Namaste

I taught my first class last night at a studio I rented from Treloar Physiotherapy and 6 people attended!  It was great.  I was feeling tired and under the weather because Amelie has been teething and has a virus that has been keeping me on my toes.  In any case, I mustered all the energy I had and taught my butt off.  


It felt great.  Hopefully people will come back next week!


People often wonder why a teacher ends a yoga class with Namaste.  It has several meetings and could be interpreted as simply a salutation, as well, but it also means: I see the higher self in you.


We say this because in the spiritual path, the aim is to reach "realization" and awareness of your higher self, leaving your "small" selves behind.
