Gentler in Time

I’ve been teaching TCC at our Senior Citizen Center (Missoula, MT) for one year now. I started doing it as a volunteer as that was the only way I was allowed to teach there. I felt a strong pull to teach there so I agreed. About six months ago the board came forth and said I could charge if I wanted. I discussed it with my class and they decided they wanted to pay, so I charged $1.00 per person. That felt good to me. I receive far more than a monetary value. My class is a highlight in my week. Many of the students are anxious to share their results with me and of course, their doctors want to know what they’re doing (that’s lowering blood pressure, e.g.). Word is spreading here in Missoula about TCC, that pleases me–chifully!

I have two other classes weekly and enjoy traveling to present weekend workshops. My husband is a minister so it allows me to share TCC whenever we visit other Unity churches. Though workshops take more energy in preparation and teaching, I feel a tremendous growth and overall feeling of well-being when it’s over. I’m sure that it will be gentler in time; as I do more, the anticipation will lessen so my prep time will be more fulfilling. Allowing me to grow at my own pace, is my gift to myself.

Blessing you in love
