I was recently thinking back to when I first started teaching yoga.
I went a whole year after my training before I started teaching. I used the excuse, "I don't know enough yet" and I went to find more trainings.
But really, I was afraid of being seen as a teacher or a leader.
I felt insecure, my skin was breaking out and I wasn't eating well. However, I didn't know any better. I was eating lots of sugar, dairy and flour while I travelled India going to meditation retreats and trainings.
When I returned home, the thought of being in front of my friends, let alone a group of students at the front of the room teaching, felt terrifying.
Because I didn't feel good in my body, I didn't have the confidence to stand in front of the room as a teacher. I didn't have the courage to lead.
Luckily around that time, I started learning about nutrition, and how what I was eating was affecting my body. I read the book, 12 Steps to Raw Foods, by Victoria Boutenko and decided to try eating raw foods for a few weeks to cleanse my body of all the toxins I had accumulated from a poor diet.
My acne slowly began to clear up and I discovered an inner and outer glow I hadn't had before. I saw that
The more you take care of yourself from the inside, the more confidence you have on the outside. {tweet it}
The better I felt in my body, the more courage I had to take risks and lead from my heart.
The last few years I immersed myself into books, programs and school to learn more about nutrition, how to clear my skin, and develop more confidence from the inside out.
Many of my clients have had similar challenges when it comes to sugar cravings, imbalanced hormones, mood swings and cystic acne. I see many women trying to reconnect to the rhythms of their body, but not sure where to start.
I decided it was time for me to share this knowledge. I created a teleclass series, Find Your Glow As A Feminine Leader. to share the steps I used to clear my skin, nutrition tips to balance hormones naturally, sync with your cycle and tap into feminine energy to develop a fearless inner confidence to become a leader and a teacher.
I am overflowing with information on this topic, way more than I could share in a blog post or email, so I created the teleclass series for those of you ready to go deeper and learn more. If you feel called, sign up here!
Love, Meredith
