MONEY MINDSET, REMOVING THE SIGMA WITH @aqumonhk
“Yoga teachers shouldn’t want financial abundance”
“I know what my time is worth but if I charge more, other yogis will judge me for being money-minded”
“I don’t associate yoga with money because that means I’m not spiritual enough”
How many of you have heard at least one of these or even thought it to yourself? What do you think is the line between yoga as a spiritual pursuit and yoga as a business?
After many years of mentoring yoga teachers, I’ve found that one of the biggest limiting beliefs they face is in their money mindset. Limiting beliefs are thoughts we believe to be true, influenced by what others say or what you read. We hold on to limiting beliefs to protect ourselves from struggle and failure so they tend to hinder us from our full potential.
The truth is, yoga teaching is a spiritual pursuit AND a business. You have spent thousands of 💵 to train to be a yoga teacher and thousands more to be a better one at that - that in itself is an investment. So why shouldn’t you charge for the transformation that you’re giving your clients? Without the money you earn, how can you get more training to provide better classes (services) to your students and clients?
Over the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing more thoughts and tips on yoga teaching and how to make an honest living out of it. Making money from yoga in no way means it has to compromise on your values or feel dirty. So stay tuned to learn how to find the fine line of balance in yoga and 💰.
Speaking of #balance, I have teamed up with #hongkongbased @aqumonhk to give a yoga workshop on balance on Aug 8. It’s absolutely free to join. Swipe left to find out how to join and tag a friend and let them know about this class! There’s already a link in my bio for your easy registration.
Oh yes, did I mention, do follow @aqumonhk and myself 😆
PS, I’ll be back with my #mentorshipworkshop tomorrow to finish this teacher training for newer yoga teachers. And guess what we are talking about tomorrow? #businessofyoga ! I wonder what they will have to say 😜
