In teaching my beginners class last night, I became acutely aware that the decades of teaching and practicing have benefited me. As class ended, students expressed their appreciation for my teaching skills. Then one of them asked how much I teach.
When I answered, she said “no wonder you’re so strong..” Another asked for how long I’ve been teaching. When I answered, she said “ so that’s how you got to be so patient”.
What collateral benefits do you find in your occupation? What collateral benefits do you receive from your spiritual practice? Ki to Happiness has grown strong and patient through teaching and practicing Hatha Yoga.
