At the first class of the each 8 week session, I typically do an introduction and have a "go around" so everyone gets to say a little something about who they are and why they are here.
This week I tweaked that and asked everyone to share their name and then one "guilty pleasure"! That was quite a step away from our usual beginning. However it brought forth not only lots of laughter but our unique humanness and imperfections.
Yoga is not about trying to be perfect or aggressively stomp on our tendencies. It is more about self awareness and conscious choices.
When we do that our guilty pleasure becomes more "just a choice" and something we can look at more deeply and honestly. Maybe we will cease then to feel guilty about it and just thoroughly enjoy it.
