the lower road

two teeny, yoga things.
1. the problem i wrote about this morning is resolved. they let me give away my remaining class passes, so i can go whenever i want now with the unlimited pass, andd my mom and stacy get to go to classes for freeee. that is a super relief because 3 days in a row was beginning to take its toll. although! i do feel stronger than usual.

2. this isn't really a yoga thing so much as a life thing (although it has applied a lot lately in the last couple of days in yoga), but this summer a very wise woman at camp who was teaching me how to teach kids leadership skills told me that anything that goes wrong in class is my fault. at first, i didn't like that. but it's true the majority of the time. if the kids misbehave, it's because you aren't engaging them. if they don't get it, it's because you aren't explaining it well enough. that lesson keeps coming back to me now as i teach anyone to do anything.. and as i try not to get frustrated with people who haven't yet mastered it yet.

p.s. anthropologie launched its own line of wedding/bridesmaid dresses called bhldn. it is taking over the blogosphere.
