15 minutes of fame for a 'Superhero' ^_^
I now apparently have a 'super-hero' title (well sort of) - a fellow alternative/complimentary practitioner called our group of practitioners:
'Agents of Light'
That has got to be one of the greatest things I have ever heard. I consider myself an 'Agent of Change' especially since I am bringing Yoga, and Yoga as a therapeutic modality to the people at the hospital where I work. It is humbling and frightening and exciting all at once to be on the edge of this type of work.
And now it's starting to roll at an ever increasing speed towards legitimacy and becoming bigger than even I could imagine. My 15 minutes of fame is arriving and I am a bit nervous....
Yesterday, I was interviewed by the local paper (over in the next county (Lake) which is the county I live in) and today they are going to do a photo shoot to accompany the piece that will run in early April which is going to help advertise my Yoga class...
I am trying, throughout all of this, to remain clear and centered...it's hard, with it coming at me so quickly at times, to catch my breath and maintain my sanity. Overall I am thrilled and feel joyful and grateful for all the help and support I've received from so many friends, family member, students and strangers.
Yesterday as I taught my class and opened up with my usual 'talk'; I told them about the PBS special that aired last night called 'The New Medicine' , then I shared a bit of wisdom with them that I had just finished reading from the book 'Emotional Yoga' and the quote read (probably not verbatim here):
Only you can ensure your own happiness. Everyone else is probably too busy anyway.
Peace
^_^
