Day 41: Be the leader
Have you ever led a group through an exercise or a breathwork session? Today I am leading a group through a HypnoBreathwork® session. If you would have told me a year ago or even 3 months ago I would have said what are you talking about or no fucking way. My first experience with it wasn’t until March 26, 2023 at the Yoga Deck in San Diego. That was the first time I met Francesca Sipma. Now here I am not even 3 months later and I’m certified in this modality and I’m leading my very first group session.
It was kind of a shitty week with some bad news on Monday and pool problems. I felt like I was treading water all week and my mouth and nose were just barely above the surface to breathe.
Part of me, wanted to reschedule but I was very grateful for the opportunity to grow and also to make an impact on the people that were going to show up. It was the day I also decided to take yoga teacher training with Tanya Rice.
The session went so well. And more than anything, I showed myself that I can do things that feel scary or that I don’t necessarily feel ready to do and I can learn from it. It’s like beginning to unpack my analysis paralysis. What a beautiful growth journey.
