This Q&A question comes from listener Heidi L who asks "What advice would you give to some who has finished their YTT and is finding themselves with resistance to teaching due to feelings of imposter syndrome/lack of confidence after the 200hr"

I'll share some of the most important things to consider based on what i've seen after teaching over 7000 hours of classes since taking my first YTT in 2011.

Like anything, the more consistent your practice becomes, the more significant results you'll see: increased flexibility, strength, balance and equanimity of mind. Many of the advanced poses will come as a side effect of regular practice. Many of the day-to-day benefits of feeling less stressed and reactive will come as a side effect of regular practice. If we chase these goals directly it will likely lead to frustration and injury. Instead, we can focus on making it easy to have a consistent practice. Here are 5 things I've found to be helpful:

1. You make it a routine - a time, a place, a stop and start. it could be a class or at home. The more automatic it is to get to practice, the less willpower needed. 
2. You have support - You've likely heard you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with. Find peers who also practice yoga and it will become the new norm.
3. You have a teacher you like - It's good to explore at first but once you find a teacher or two you like it is one less variable to decide on. A good teacher will have consistent classes or offerings for you to continue to deepen your practice. 
4. You practice releasing judgments and expectations - Easier said than done, but one of the most demotivating things you can do is compare yourself - even to yourself. Every day is different, every practice is different. Yoga is about being with what arises without judgment. Any judgment is just a reminder to come back to being with this new experience. 
5. You have a space that makes it easy to practice - If you practice at a study, make it easy to get there. If you practice at home have a space that is ideally just used for yoga with things that feel inspiring and motivating to practice. If it needs to be a multipurpose space, make it easy to move obstructions.

This is a special episode!

Today I interview one of my mentors, Angie Knight. She has taught for 20+ years and we have worked together for the last 6 years. In the interview she shared some brilliant insights that you can apply right away. We discussed:

• How do you distinguish between what is your intuition and what is your conditioning?
• A personal story of the synchronicities and intuition that lead me to Angie's class
• What blocks you from following your heart
• How to resolve cognitive dissonance
• Angie and I share limiting beliefs that we have had around money (and how my car fell apart!) 
• How to go stop unconsciously creating what you don't want
• Learn about Angie's event happening on July 27th in Austin where you can practice all of the above
• The importance of having a safe space to process your emotions
• What's "wrong" with you is actually your gift
