I have been to several workshops with teachers and have experienced that very thought myself. Congratulations on your coming baby!<BR/>BeckyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28555295.post-58292449922200658532007-05-14T11:08:00.000-05:002007-05-14T11:08:00.000-05:00Congrats on the pregnancy!Somehow the different op...Congrats on the pregnancy!<BR/>Somehow the different opinions from the "expert" Yogis has always given me a sense of comfort. The first time I was exposed to these differences, I was scared. My background was math and engineering--there must be a "right" answer. What I learned, was that if there was a "right" answer, then no one knew it.<BR/>Over time, I came to find freedom in these differences and realized that what feels "right" and good for me is what's right for me--not necessarily for someone else.<BR/>On different days, different moods, different times in my cycle, etc, the "right" answer changes. <BR/>This keeps me on my toes and my awareness must be present to know what's right for now.<BR/>As a teacher, it helps to keep me humble and know that I can never feel exactly what someone else feels. Our experiences are unique, and in seeing all of these different views from "experts", I know that each person is truly their own best teacher.<BR/>In summary, listen, learn, take what works for this moment, and store the rest. It just might be what's "right" on another day.<BR/>Thanks for sharing your conference experience. Looking forward to reading more :-)<BR/>Love,<BR/>KrisKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18112238121767903592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28555295.post-58345399000871653012007-05-11T05:21:00.000-05:002007-05-11T05:21:00.000-05:00Hi Brenda!Congratulations on your pregnancy - sooo...Hi Brenda!<BR/>Congratulations on your pregnancy - sooo exciting! I also find it interesting how everyone has 'their' way to do things. For me, the neti neti (neither this nor that)approach works best - find alignment organically with the breath and by developing your knowledge of your particular body (like me and my bone obsession!)<BR/>Looking forward to hearing your full thoughts and reading your YJ article.Nadine Fawellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02195579342324187133noreply@blogger.com
