putting yourself first

Putting yourself first is easier said than done when the guys who come to my Yoga for Men classes have so many other priorities for their time. As much as I had a great turnout at both classes again this week, some of the guys’ best intentions to be there unravelled due to work pressures.

Working in a busy day job myself, I totally get it. It’s one of the main reasons I re-introduced a drop-in format to my classes in favour of advance bookings. To offer the guys flexibility around their many other priorities in life.

When Sam arrived at Thursday’s class he had only finished work a few minutes earlier. When we gathered at the end and shared our Talk Club scores out of 10, he said that his score immediately increased as he set foot in the room and it went up from there on 🚀

I know how much these classes mean to the guys. I see it in their scores. I see it in their faces. I see it through feedback like Sam’s. When we can carve out precious time for ourselves, it’s a gift we hold close to our heart.
