So...
Life is pretty good these days. I have been busy as all get out (apologies to my good friends whom I have been out of contact with) at work and at home. Nadia and I are engaged and planning a wedding. I am excited that it will be out at the land in the spring. I don't know how we are going to get everything together but we have plenty of time.
I am going to start Yoga school this coming Friday.
I am very excited and anxious. Keith (the instructor) is a bit hard core which is good and... challenging. I expect to learn allot this summer. I have been going to Dharma Yoga for a couple of weeks now and I have already improved exponentially at work when I am teaching the kids in therapy group.
Work is going pretty well these days. I get to spend allot of time teaching yoga, meditation, and manhood to the kids in juvie. I am excited to say that it is working for at least half of them. Last week one of our kids was like " I think I see where this is going sir...if we learn how to relax and feel good without drugs then we won't need drugs...right?"
Of course he was dead on. I couldn't really explain the value of enhanced awareness and metacognition so I was very happy with that level of insight and very proud of him.
Being a therapist is allot like being a dad over and over,...One of my clients just graduated from high school and I felt so proud of him. I had worked with them off and on over the past two years and felt a strong bond with the family.
I have so much to do....plans within plans within plans.
I hope everyone is doing well.
