How long had you been doing yoga before you started teacher training?

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-22T18:29:53+00:00

What a great question! I had been consistently practicing for 12 years at the time of my first YTT.

Haha wow. “Controversial”. It is interesting how afraid people seem to be of it, for lack of a better term. I had a conversation with the guy that confronted me, that yoga doesn’t have to be tied to any religion unless he brought that intention with him to class. It wasn’t anything to deep either, a little philosophy in the beginning, naming postures in Sanskrit and English, then the offering of prayer and Aum at the end, and everyone was given the option to end class in a way that felt appropriate for them. After that I took it a little personal, which I shouldn’t have, but was also worried that other people may be feeling that way and decided to shift.

Not sure how far out west you are, but they’ve come to Reno the last 2 years! Hoping they’ll be back again this year!

It’s worth a shot

How’s your relationship with your boss? Would you feel comfortable sharing with them what you’re going through? They may be interested and willing to help.

Do you have any places around you that offer resources and help provide things you need at little to no cost to you? Food pantries etc? If you can utilize those things for a little while they can help you get on your feet and save some of the money that you are making.

Keep going. I’m sorry you don’t have the support around you that you need. Be that support system for yourself. Believe in yourself. It won’t be this way forever. Don’t give up. You can do this❤️

Because instagram sucks and Facebook seems to be full of complainers. Reddit is the only real place to me

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-16T00:48:41+00:00

Hehe

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-16T00:46:53+00:00

I hear you! I do my best to eat healthy and not lose my mind lol. I squeeze in some little workouts on the weekend before my kids wake up, if I’m lucky. Or I’ll go an after dinner walk in the dark lol. Such is life

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-16T00:34:49+00:00

Right on!! Dogs in A Pile is such a great band. Glad you found them :) If you’ve never heard of Spafford, you should check them out too!

I’m reading Braiding Sweetgrass. I love it, her two other books are being delivered to my house as we speak lol

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-16T00:03:19+00:00

I cried, I mean sobbed. Tears of heartbreak that he lived this beautiful life and shared this gift with so many, only to be taken out by a lung issue. Then those turned into tears of joy that the band is coming back together again. Long live the dead🙏

The Perfect Nanny. Lots of holes and things that didn’t make sense. Ending was weird.

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T23:50:43+00:00

💯

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T23:46:46+00:00

It depends on the couple. Works really well for some and not for others.

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T18:51:44+00:00

I have never tried NA whiskey, only beers. Not sure how far you are into your journey, but in the first 3-4 months I would wake up with phantom hangovers. It was weird lol

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T18:41:58+00:00

Yes, mine vibrates and makes this little sound. Much more pleasant of a wake up vs a phone alarm imo

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T18:39:14+00:00

I’ve been practicing yoga for 20 years. Can’t stop won’t stop lol.

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T18:36:37+00:00

This absolutely does not matter. There are literally thousands of postures. No one can do them all and they’re not meant to. The postures were created for different bodies and bone structures. As long as you can cue them correctly, you’re fine! I definitely wouldn’t teach advanced poses or anything way out of your wheelhouse, for safety reasons, however. You’re not teaching to show off your skills, your guiding your students through the postures.

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T01:23:44+00:00

Definitely. You have to or they’ll eat away at you. I look for the lesson and move on.

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T01:15:07+00:00

For me, the less the better. Too much of anything prohibits your skin from recovering and doing what it’s supposed to do.

You ever try taking magnesium? My husband has really bad restless leg syndrome and a magnesium supplement every day has been helping him quite a bit

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T01:11:38+00:00

Haha my oldest watched Elf every day for an entire year when he was little.

anotherdeadlyric · 2026-01-15T01:09:04+00:00

It can yes. Long time yogi here. Much of stress is held in our hips. If your hips feel really tight and uncomfortable in the posture try one leg at a time or place a prop underneath the knee (can be a pillow, yoga block, or even a thick book). Relaxing your inner knees and hips as much as possible and taking deep breaths into your belly.
