I’ve taken a little time away from my day job this week.
A few things around the house needed doing, I wanted to get to a couple of daytime yoga classes, and I’ve had some space to plan and dream a little for Yoga Brave.
And somewhere in amongst all of that, something rather lovely happened.
I remembered I had some clothes that needed mending and hemming.
I’ll call Janine.
Janine is one of our students and has been mending and recreating my clothes for years. janines.alterations
The garden needs some specific help with a few sloping areas.
I’ll ask Karen.
Karen has recently started her own garden design business. She came over today, walked the garden with me and offered exactly the kind of thoughtful advice I needed. Karen Griffin Garden Design and Advice
And then there’s Carol, who recently gave me one of the most transcendent massages I’ve ever experienced. Unwind With Carol
Three women from our Yoga Brave community.
Three very different offerings.
And it struck me that this is community too.
Not just gathering together on a mat.
But knowing one another well enough to say,
I know someone who can help with that.
It’s our skills, our businesses, our creativity, our experience, our hands and our hearts coming into relationship.
The more I notice it, the more I wonder what else is here.
Who else in our community has something they offer that another person might genuinely benefit from?
Perhaps you have a small business, a trade, a creative practice, a healing modality, a service or a particular skill.
If so, I’d love you to tell us about it below.
There is so much more to community than coming to class.
Sometimes it’s simply knowing who to call. 🤍
