energy to sit

yoga teacher training has started. i have gone to two weekends which have been tiring, but great. i can't think of the last time i have been in a room of 20 plus people that i was so eager to meet. most of us are not sure exactly what we are doing in the training, but somehow it feels like the right place to be.

and it isn't as scary to teach other people who are also learning to teach, although it still is frustrating when i know i am doing something poorly (and they know it too). during my one practice teaching so far the only feedback i got was to talk louder. i feel like the confident voice i have in my head does not really verbalize into the outside world. yet, hopefully.

sitting can be exhausting. sitting and trying to absorb as much knowledge as possible. the saturday session runs 2:15 pm to 9:15pm. i haven given up on attempting good posture and taking good notes by about 6:30 and am just trying to stay conscious.
