A personal Note of Juliette

Sept. 2022.

Juliette shares a personal story as Kompassieyoga founder/owner and single mum of a great boy of 8yrs. For inspiration and loving kindness.

The profound wisdom of the Lotus and the Mud can be experienced in many circles and periods of our lives. Also in my life… After all the lockdowns, the sudden loss of my father  (jan’22) and my beloved pet and my skin cancer, it has been quite a rocking journey. 

Yes, I continue to shine my light for you, my beloved students! Also for my son, for my studio, my beloved friends and for the sake of sacred life and more. It is a mutual exchange. By being courageously open about this, I trust to surrender and inspire. This too will pass and transform and have hidden gifts. 

The mud is there to be perceived. In your inner being and maybe your situation. Not to be judged nor escaped. We can gain wisdom from our mud (challenges, fears, emotions, worries, overthinking) and through our practice, and not to forget: reaching out to kind others: We are able to calm down to the earth and our wise inner being. The waters of our inner being are always crystal clear. To connect to that clarity and inner peace is a dedicated (yoga/lifestyle) process. And it helps us to find support for inner strength, focus and faith.

A friend/teacher of mine called it the power of surrendering, as we often practice in savasana. But I like to add the focus of feeling the eternal movement and possible transformations inside of you and in life. It is not always easy to trust in this in challenging times: right? At Kompassieyoga i feel we are there for each other while practicing Yoga in a loving atmosphere.

As long as we are alive on this beautiful earth, we will go through this learning process many times. Finding ease in that circle of growth is so healing. And so is yoga. Not just acceptance of what is. But trust and acceptance of the process! That’s how you enrich and evolve. 

We are not so different from each other. We are all human. Omm Shanti. Courage will grow for each of us. We aim to always give you the genuine and loving (yoga)guidance with sincere attention for your personal and physical health and peace! With seriousness, but also with healing lightness and laughter. 

Last but not least: As I am selling my beloved maisonnette in Rotterdam West to protect the studio and to overcome the lockdowns: feel free to click on this link!  This Appartement is big, light, has a loving ambiance and is very calm for such a central place! 

Namaste and see you soon!
