Today has been lovely 🥰 I spent time with someone who first came into my life through my work many years ago and who has since become a dear friend.
As I was driving home, it got me reflecting on one of the unexpected gifts of this work….the people.
Over the years, I’ve taught hundreds of classes, workshops, courses and trainings. I’ve met people from all walks of life, all arriving with their own stories, challenges and reasons for stepping into OTC.
And every now and then something really lovely happens. I make a friend for life 🥰
Whilst yoga, mindfulness and wellbeing may bring us together initially, it’s often the connection, kindness and shared humanity that keeps us in each other’s lives.
I never imagined when I started teaching that some of the people who walked through the door would go on to become such an important part of my world.
There are several people I can think of who arrived as students or clients and who, over time, have become treasured friends.
For that, I’ll always be grateful ❤️
