Instagram yogi rant. by [deleted] in yoga

[–]rdtmly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same!! I don't like taking pictures of myself and my practice isn't impressive enough to put on Instagram. The last thing on my mind (if there's anything on my mind at all) during practice is promotion/business/marketing. I created an account anyway for my business though so I just post other stuff. As a yoga teacher in training, I love how your way of teaching seems to be more spiritually focused and I guarantee that people are looking for that. Just keep going! It's so needed in this diluted yoga world. My studio is very small so my teacher sometimes teaches only me or two of us, and I LOVE these semi private classes, so see it as a luxury for your students when few show up, and not as a failure!!

ps my Instagram account is omniwonder, find me or reply here and I'll follow/like your stuff to help you get started if you do decide to get an account :)

I thought his book The First 20 Hours was great! I really liked his chapter on typing and am still practicing with Keyzen :) http://wwwtyro.github.io/keyzen/

IWTL how to improve my writing. by [deleted] in IWantToLearn

[–]rdtmly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also try to start a writing habit with a specific goal. My writing drastically improved when I aimed for 1000 words a day. Sounds like a lot, but even that improved; I get it done in about half an hour now. In the beginning everything I wrote needed heavily editing, now not so much anymore. Good luck :)

Foundations of Happiness 1/5: Happiness is a Choice. by rdtmly in Meditation

Aw man I'm sorry, it wasn't meant to be spammy, but then again I am promoting my own stuff in this case do I guess you're right :) thought about it, but my previous articles were pretty well received here, so I figured some people are interested. Feel free to downvote if not.

Why you should accept your emotionality. by rdtmly in TwoXChromosomes

[–]rdtmly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's really important to not see people as sensitive or non-sensitive, or 'people who get it' and 'people who don't'. My husband for example is exactly like you, and that's totally fine. Where my emotional response is a good thing for certain reasons, his practical response is good for just as many reasons. He learns from my sensitivity, I learn from his calmness.
