Criticism

How do you take criticism? 

Do you take criticism more personally from certain people?

From Those You Look Up To

I recently taught my first yoga class at Suryalila where I completed my YTT back in February & was taken by surprise (& totally nervous) when I saw my teacher walk into my class. 

After class my teacher took the time to share her feedback with me regarding my lesson - something I am very grateful for as she has taught me so much and is someone I aspire to be like one day. 

Criticism vs Feedback

I believe what differentiates the two is your own perspective. To focus on the positive vs the negative - how you can use another's remarks to improve vs focus on where you went 'wrong'. 

Personal Opinions 

We are all entitled to our own personal opinions.

Although, remember - be open to others' opinions but always discover your own truths.

As I struggled to achieve Tittibhasana. I was cued to 'bring the legs closer to the shoulders & gaze forward' - instantly feeling a difference in my posture.

Can you spot the difference? I certainly felt it - & am grateful for all my teachers - on & off the mat.
