Dear Yin Yoga Teacher- Please Shut Up!

S 2| EP. 7

When we're a teacher who has moved from a movement form of yoga into a quieter form of yoga. There can be this awkward feeling about all the silence.

There can be discomfort with not talking as much and allowing space for quiet exploration. Sometimes this comes just from it being a habit from having taught a more movement form of Yoga.

And so as teachers, we can think that we want to talk, all the time in class in these quieter classes like Yin because we feel like we have to make everyone comfortable.

And we feel like we need to fill the silence. We try to come up with a boatload of inspiring quotes or full-on Dharma talks so that there isn't silence in the practice.

And I'm going to argue that when you do that, you are stealing from your students. You are stealing this experience of growth and healing that comes from the silence.

On the other side of that discomfort is where the growth and the healing is. That is where the evolution is. It's on the other side of our comfort zone.
