Have you ever given up on an activity like meditation or yoga because you don’t have the time? For busy work at home mums, taking an hour to try and do meditation, pilates, yoga, relaxation techniques or mind training is usually a luxury that we just can’t afford to do daily. Have you thought of doing some of these mind and body exercises on a daily basis but just for a FEW MINUTES? You’d be surprised at the new spring of energy and mind power that will emerge from just those few minutes of meditation, relaxation, mind coaching or self awareness.

Did you ever question your devotion to teaching Yoga? Have you ever internally questioned the devotion of another Yoga teacher? It is only human to question and make comparisons. Making comparisons, and judging, has kept you alive up to this point. Every step in life requires you to make some form of judgment or a decision.

Ben practiced for 16 years, with three different teachers, but never considered Yoga teacher training. He states: “I was always too busy with my job, working toward my master’s degree, or spending time with my family, to think about teaching Yoga classes.” The last time Ben found himself unemployed, he decided to become a Yoga instructor.
