A particular incident a year ago is still a mystery to me. I'll have to give details for it to be understandable. In 2005 I started a yoga club in my small, fairly isolated town as there were no yoga teachers that year in our area. I couldn't imagine not being able to go to a yoga class! I asked another woman to help teach and she and I led the sessions on alternate months. We had alot of fun and met some great people and decided to run the club again in 2006. However as the time got closer to start the club again (after summer break) I kept getting messages to not teach... repeatedly. I talked this over with the other teacher and she became (understandably) upset so I consented to teach for the year even though my intuition was still telling me not to get involved. Well, we had a great year and I'm glad that I taught the club again but I have this ongoing undercurrent of doubt about my intuition now. My husband said it was just nerves related to not teaching over the summer months that caused my doubts but I really don't think it was that. I used the same connecting techniques that I usually use for my intuition and I believe it was telling me not to get involved.
I still rely upon my intuition but I'm a little wary of it now as if I had followed it I would have missed out on a great experience and alot of fun.
Does anyone have any thoughts for this kind of scenario? Do you think in time I will get an answer or see things in perspective? The experience lingers for me and I wonder if I will get a resolution.
Thanks for any responses. |
I was in a similar situation this year. I was asked to volunteer for a position that on the surface was ideal for my career. Once I started, because I try to help everyone in any way that I can, it became overwhelming to the point where I would feel physically bad everyday, and the position was not even paid. I believe it was my Inner Self/God within/Light telling me to step away. But I had made a commitment to the company and I didn't want to seem flaky.
One day, when I actually considered NOT spending a holiday weekend with my family so that I could catch up with work from this volunteer position, I stopped myself, woke up and sent a resignation letter.
I felt so much better after that! I even ended up finishing my book as a result of having more time to do things that I wanted to do.
Follow your heart. You've committed enough time to this venture. Don't do anything that you do not absolutely love with a passion. It's your life, live it how you want to live it.
Many Blessings!
