Because I am still stuck in the middle of the teaching part and find absolutely no motivation to finish and/or continue. And the gulit is mainly due to me and people raise the question: but youāve already paid for it.

I used to feel that way about my BA degree in Transpersonal Psychology (and subsequent refresher classes), that I never āearned moneyā from them. It has been invaluable throughout my life tho and continues to be.

I totally feel you on the no motivation and not wanting to finish something. I have a big outstanding task at work that I was supposed to finish today. So got to try and get my shit together to do it over the weekend!
After the teaching bit is there anything else interesting to look forward to, or is that the last module?

Itās a āLululemon the matā 
Yes it was expensive, but I used the old simple one for about 7 years. And the new mat is already so worth it l. I can focus much more on real strength then on shaking or not being safe in things like 3 legged dog.

I am in the first third of this whole teaching module. So it is still a lot of stuff ahead. My problem is that there is absolutely no pressure behind, I mean external which leaves me alone with my unwillingness. And I often feel that since I am in my recovery I am not willing to finish things where I feel out of place. I really donāt know. Ahhh.

I joined a morning yoga anusara class this morning. What does yoga gave me. Being more aware of being not at all symmetrical. Being humble. And seeing that somehow this rubs off onto my daily life. Being more in balance and more importantly having a wider base for this balance.

Is teaching the last module of the course? Or is there more yoga stuff after that?
I can relate to lacking the will to finish things. I never managed to get myself together to do the final research project for my MSc. I had paid for it and it was relatively open ended so I had a few goās at starting it and a few deferrals over a couple of years. Eventually I decided to just let it go (rather than being dragged! @sassyrocks 
). I ended up with an PgDip and am happy with the skills I gained.
It would have been kind of cool to finish it for the kudos, but I didnāt need it for my career or anything and it was becoming a source of increasing stress so I was happy to just put it down in the end.
Also. I paid for it. And my future income did not depend on it. So as I see it, my freedom and right to choose not to continue it.
I am sure you will find the right way to move forward for you, whenever you are ready to decide!

I think you nailed it.
In the meantime they changed the curriculum and divided it also by costs into fist part: philosophy, history, practice, their principle and I really liked it. And the second part being the teacher training. One year ago I had to buy the bundle. If Iād had to make the choice today Iād chosen the first part only.

Just finished day 15 of Adrieneās Center journey.
Had three days off, which is fine, but I donāt want to keep letting it slip. Weekends are so much less structured and that is OK. Ideally Iād like to get at least five practices in each week to allow for a bit of flexibility. So maybe aiming to do yoga in the morning on the weekend might help.
I used to get up at 5am every day so it was much easier to do it then on the weekdays. For a while recently I was struggling to get up before 9am that is getting slightly earlier. Possibly connected to doing yoga before bed. Seems to help me sleep through too. Or itās a coincidence!
Found myself struggling to get into boat pose which is odd cos my core strength is pretty decent. Not a problem, just an observation. My balance for tree pose practically non-existent too 
but a good opportunity to dial it back a level and build the foundations.

I have been going to a local yin practice twice a week for awhile (wish they offered more days). Just adore it. Am back on Thursday since my Q time is up!!! I have missed it and running as well. I literally have a yoga room hereā¦yet maybe get in there 1 time per week. My strength lies in attending group classes.
I like a before bed yin as well. There are a couple of in bed ones I do, both short, and I like those nights.

Started doing yoga for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu which has a app and good videos so far. I just really loved what the instructor said in todayās lesson I wanted to share it:
When youāre new to yoga you have to get your body to trust you because when youāre hurt your body has like shut down that part as if to say āno, you dont have access to this part because you obviously donāt know what youāre doing, so ill take it from here,ā and thats why your so tight there. -SebastiĆ”n Brosche
I just really like this way of viewing the body of something almost separate from ourselves that we are building a relationship through yoga.
Take care yāall

Well after feeling very motivated and optimistic on Mondayā¦ I havenāt done any more yoga this week.
I have got some stuff going on health wise which is not helping mental health stuff and I just havenāt managed it this week. I know yoga would help me destress but I am also trying not to stress about not doing the yoga. Fucking anxiety brain 
Going to try and keep an open mind about before bed yoga this evening though!
