What I discovered about myself and my practice whilst immersed in the spirituality of Bali

Bamboo Forest Walk

As many of my clients, friends and family know I recently took time out of massage to travel to Indonesia and complete a Yoga Teacher Training course with Inner Yoga, a Yoga Alliance Registered Training Centre in Bali.

This time out was a business decision, but also a personal one. As a small business owner who is also the organ grinder, was no mean feat. I went through many stages of feeling guilty about leaving my clients behind for 6 weeks, and thought about the consequences of this, and also the implications of not earning anything for the time I was out of the business. I had to make peace with this emotions in order to get the most out fo the training and the opportunities to learn, develop, go into the self and be a better person.

Out on Bali I was immersed in the culture, the history, the art, the scenery and the food (amazing by the way) and this allowed me to be receptive to the training in a wholesome way because there wasn’t the work and home-life to contend with after a long 13-14 hour day in the yoga training. I often work those hours in my business, in fact that is the norm, so for me I embraced the long days with a work-like attitude but I was also very relaxed and knew it was a rare opportunity.

I have come back to Leuchars and Sean Elder Therapies with renewed perspectives, a different kind of energy and a spiritual connection to the Earth and myself. This I truly believe is going to benefit my clients existing and new. I am excited about the future, the present and feel a strong sense of purpose and moving forward and upwards.

2024 is going to be a wonderful year full of health, happiness, new learnings, courses, workshops and of course this new found spirituality threading and weaving through everything that I do. I hope you will join me on this path and be a part of making your life and those around you better, healthier, happier and more free.

I strive to make my practice as a therapist the best it can be for every single person, and I do this by learning from my clients, learning from experts in their fields, embarking on journeys through different cultures as well as developing skills and knowledge that are my own. All of this, I hope, enriches my offerings and enables positive outcomes for you and for me as a holistic therapist.

I have just 2 spaces left on my Science of Stretching weekly classes starting in January. These are on Mondays and the time has still to be 100% confirmed but will approximately be at 18:15 for 75mins. If you would like to know more email me at hello@seanelder.co.uk or sign up via this link. I’d be delighted to hear from you.

May your 2023 come to a beautiful close, and may all beings be healthy, happy and free.

Your therapist,

Sean
