The Next Step In My Raw Food Journey

Over the last year i've made many changes to my health and my life, i've taken courses, had coaching from some amazing coaches, spent time planning my career and put lots thought into the importance of following my dreams.  It's all been amazing, as well as emotionally draining at times.  However, one of the things i've been thinking about a lot lately is fear, and how that affects me and my journey to find true happiness.  I did a post about this on my yoga blog a few days ago, after it came up in one of the art courses that i'm doing, and it's been on my mind almost constantly since.  I know that I need to find the confidence and courage to leave my comfort zone, and face my fears, and that is my next step.

One of the things which makes me feel very anxious is travelling alone.  It may seem a silly thing to be scared of, but, as I had my children very young, i've never really gone very far on my own.  Even when I recently went to the Juice Academy, I didn't travel alone.  So i've decided that has to change, and i'm facing my fears and going to London, on the train, by myself.  I'm going to be attending a retreat which combines two of my passions, raw foods and yoga.  It's at Covent Garden, a place i've always wanted to visit and i'll be learning about raw foods with a lovely raw food coach, Saskia Fraser, who i've already had some coaching with, and doing lots of yoga and meditation.  I'm so excited, and extremely nervous at the same time.  I know it will be amazing, and it will be so good for me, I just hope that I can cope well with my nerves.  It really does feel so right though, like it was meant to be, and I feel proud of myself for taking that first step.  

So in a few weeks, i'll be packing my yoga mat, my journal and my camera, and heading off to London for what I hope could be a very big step in my journey.
