‘But aren’t yoga teachers supposed to be Zen all the time?’
Being a yoga teacher doesn’t mean being passive or palatable. I’m grounded, not compliant. I set boundaries, I speak up, and I stand firm in what’s right.
Yoga isn’t about being “zen” all the time, it’s about awareness. About being awake enough to see clearly, to question, and to act with integrity.
Reactive abuse is when someone’s response to harmful or unjust behaviour is reframed as the problem, instead of the behaviour that caused it. Naming harm isn’t the issue, avoiding accountability is.
I don’t practice to make myself comfortable in an unjust world. I practice to stay steady, clear, and strong enough to face it, and to do something about it.
