A record breaking instructor event in Denver on 11/11/11 no less!  Our group was so large that we split into two simultaneous workshops, but we managed to get everyone together for a group photo!  Kristin, Cindy, Kathy, and I really enjoyed spending the day with all of you!  Special thanks to our ABMP crew, Erin, Abram and Tracy for taking time to join us as well! 

What a great experience!  We wish you and your programs all the best!

I wanted to share with you a huge "ah-ha" moment I had yesterday.  This idea touched my heart deeply and I am curious to see if anyone else has implemented it. 

 

Yesterday we had a Holistic Nurse come in to speak on how healing happens and self care.  It was beyond what I expected and was very moving.  One of the points she touched on is one we as instructors teach our students; grounding before session.  But she took this a step further and talked about how the massage room was "sacred ground".  Well this did make sense to me, but what I heard in my heart right after she said this was "treat your classroom as sacred".  Wow!  That idea had never crossed my mind!  I can get so wrapped up in everything I need to do, teach, & communicate that I had never bothered to even consider that.  So now I am making it a personal goal, to set my intention for each class before I enter the "sacred learning space".

Go Louisville, KY!  Thanks to all the wonderful instructors who made this day so fun and informative at the Seelbach Hilton!  No ghosts in our picture, but we had a great time talking about building capacity in our students! Keep us posted fellow Capacity Coaches!

Thank you for coming to Columbus! I had been watching the cities you were hosting the workshop in and was so excited to see you had added the workshop in August. It was great and we have implemented some of your suggestions into our classes! Hope to see ABMP workshops in Columbus again soon!
