Tonight I taught my first yoga class after a 15-month break from teaching.
I’d been thinking that I might return around this time and over the last couple of weeks, more and more people have been asking me when I might teach again.
Then today, unexpectedly, I was asked if I could cover a class and that was the nudge I needed.
It felt good to be back despite being a tad nervous.
Another milestone in what has been a gradual return to life this year.
What continues to surprise me is the timing of some of life’s lessons.
Only this morning, I was having quite a deep conversation about my own spiritual journey and admitting that, lately, I haven’t felt the connection with it.
I listened to a talk by Moon Omens about the New Moon in Virgo taking place today and found myself drawn to the invitation to become more intentional about the life we’re creating and to remember that sometimes change can begin with one small, brave decision to try.
A few hours later, I was unexpectedly given the opportunity to teach yoga again.
I’ve found it difficult at times to trust the idea that life might still unfold in ways I cannot yet see. To believe that what is meant for us won’t necessarily pass us by because we’ve had to stop, change direction or take longer than we imagined.
Also hearing today that “Something has been learned about loss that cannot be unlearned” feels true too.
There are some experiences that change the way we understand life. I don’t think healing means somehow returning to the person we were before them or finding a lesson that makes the loss worthwhile.
Perhaps it’s learning how to carry what cannot be unlearned while slowly making space for life alongside it.
Honestly, when you’re in the thick of it, you often can’t see very far ahead.
Sometimes we don’t realise we’re beginning a new chapter until a small opportunity invites us to take the next step.
Sometimes it looks like a conversation.
A nudge.
An invitation you weren’t expecting.
And one small decision to say yes.
Tonight, I’m reminded that we don’t always need to see the whole path to begin walking towards ourselves again.
