The Secret To Knowing Your Life is Going in the Right Direction is Easier Than you Think

Everything that occurs in your life happens for a reason.

There have been some things which have made it easier for me to live life over time, I have to say, and those are to be better at checking in with your self, getting better at paying attention to your life, such as the abundance of incoming signs and symbols.

Being open to, or being able to read signs and symbols of life, I feel, will unlock your gates to your inner authentic truth and understanding.

Have you ever had synchronicities, I like to call them ‘God-telling-you-something moments’, when you start to think about something, and you’re not even sure you are going to do it, want to do it or should do it, and then something in the outer-physical-naked-eye world reflects that exact thought to you in a soonish moment that makes you think of it in a new way, makes you feel confirmed that you should do it or nudges you forward? 

For example thinking about a friend, and you check your phone, and they have texted you. You dream of a person, and you get a call from them the next day. 

Those are like gentle God-telling-you-something moments. 

Like those are nice, and you’re like thank you God! Stop it~ You have a little more faith, and you pay a little bit more attention, your eyes wake up a little more, and yep, cool! 

But when there are those moments about, whether or not you should pursue the new goal of your life, butterflies are flying about your stomach, nervous as hell to take the first step? Wondering whether or not you should pursue that job, move to that country, take that research job, or take that endeavor that is going to be freaking hard, confusing and bring uncertainty? AND for sure, you know, that no one you know can call you up and tell you “yes, take that road”, do that thing, make that move AND THEN you get a sign, those are like shockwaves coursing through your veins telling you that YES, THAT’S IT!

God has many ways to communicate with you what you are doing is right with signs and symbols.Truth is these are not rare, there are TONS of symbols and signs in life that are available to you if you are open to it.

My Yoga Teacher Training Experience in Bali Part 2

By the 4th day of my yoga teacher training I had learned ALL of the exact names of the postures and benefits of those postures in the long obligatory prayer, as they were all the basic yoga postures with tremendous healing benefits.

As I was raising my arms mid motion on that fourth morning during the Long Obligatory Prayer, from standing (Tadasana Mountain Pose) to my hands raised to the sky (Utthita Hasta In Tadasana, extended mountain pose), I realized exactly what I was doing, and how the physicality of the yoga postures had a DIRECT link to the Baha’i Writings, and the magnitude of it dawn on me like a massive wave.

How I decided to become a Yoga Teacher?

Spending an entire month in Bali, Indonesia in July 2016 for a Yoga Teacher Training was life changing to say the very least. 

I don't think I knew what I was getting my self into, I was just super excited that it somehow happened to be ok for me to leave my full time job in academia for an entire month. The stars aligned that my boss also took a month off during that same month, and the rest was history.

One of my office mates was teaching yoga at the Public Health School in Singapore. For about a year, I was intermittently talking to her about her yoga teacher training, where she did it, how it was etc, as I had been thinking about it for the past 2 years. I didn't end up going to a single one of her classes UNTIL I had already agreed to take over her classes once she got pregnant - which is when it all started.
