Ever think about what you believe and how you came up with those beliefs? Many people don’t consider the beliefs they have, the things that run their life, aren’t even things they decided to believe but are more things they just picked up from someone else.
In the yoga world, there are lots of beliefs that teachers think are facts but are just someone’s opinion. The idea, for instance, that if you taught a Signature Sequence, your students would get bored. This is just a belief but many teachers tell me this as if it’s a fact. Then they work with me in my program, we talk about how they can experiment with a Signature Sequence, they try it in their classes and nothing happens! They find that no one gets bored, no one walks out and in fact, the only thing that changes is that they get better at teaching the sequence!
In today’s episode, I share much more about beliefs and relate it to yoga teaching. I share from Jim Murphy’s book, “Inner Excellence.”
I also share an invitation to my free online event on December 11, 2025, “The Yoga Teacher Reset.” Get your spot in this exciting, inspiring event here:
