A few posts ago, I shared my need to need to make big changes in order to empower myself.

Here’s the thing: nothing in life is permanent. Everything is constantly evolving. I used to say that teaching yoga was my dharma—my life’s purpose. But after becoming a mother and navigating major life changes, I realized that my purpose has changed.

My little boy is now my why. Every decision I make is rooted in his wellbeing. He is my everything.

If you’re a yoga teacher, you know that the math doesn’t math—and the hustle is real. As a mom needed stability.

In yoga, we learn about the four aims of human life. Here is what I’ve been reflecting on as I take a step back and look at my life.

💫 Dharma – the longing for purpose
Being my son’s mama is my dharma now. Teaching yoga comes second.

💫 Artha – the longing for the means to fulfill our dharma
This includes financial stability, physical well-being, and a stable home. Returning to the classroom supports this desire.

💫 K**a – the longing for joy, creativity, and pleasure
Teaching again will spark my creativity, and allow me to fully enjoy my time off with my son—without the guilt or stress.

💫 Moksha – the longing for true freedom and spiritual awareness
I don’t have anything figured out, but I know that the more I surrender to impermanence, the more content I become. I feel a quiet liberation from needing things to happen my way, on my timeline. I feel God walking with me. I know that everything in my life has gotten me to this point. And that’s enough.

This isn’t goodbye to yoga. I can never not teach. It’s just a shift. I’ll return to teaching in a new way, when the time is right. So stay tuned. 💞

To all my students, and everyone I’ve shared space with—I love you. I’m so grateful for you.

To all my teachers, you’ll be seeing more of me. I’m so grateful for you.
