Healthy Boundaries for Yoga Teachers

Heathly Boundaries for Yoga Teachers

Time, love, energy and money – yoga teachers are some of the most generous people I know! Agree?

But all the loving kindness can come at your own expense without healthy boundaries. Here are my ESSENTIAL steps for creating Healthy Boundaries as a Yoga Teacher help . . . watch the video or listen to the PODCAST VERSION HERE.

1) Boundaries exist to protect and conserve relationships. Before setting your yoga teacher boundaries reflect on these 4 relationships:

You & Your Health (physical, mental, emotional & spiritual)
You & Your Family / Home Life (time, finances, hopes & dreams)
You & Your Students
You & Yoga

2) Now you understand what is important and sacred to you in these areas write out your boundaries as a yoga teacher make sure to consider:
Office hours
Time on social media
Time chatting to your yoga students before / after class
Class prices and packages
Refund Policies etc

3) Communicate Clearly, don’t hide important information in your terms and conditions. Communicate clearly at the time of booking, on your website, in email confirmations at class etc. Give students space to ask clarification questions.

4) Honour Your Boundaries, when people make requests for things that transgress your boundaries it’s OK to SAY NO! Try not to over-justify your answer – that’s a shame response, rooted in people pleasing and self-worth!
