Hello all - I have a quick question regarding attending yoga festivals/conferences/intensives, etc solo or by yourself. I am considering attending my first conference (2 or 3 day) but I don’t have any friends that are yogi’s so I’d basically be going it alone. Has anyone done this - anything to share? Is it awkward to be there without knowing anyone?
Guess I’m just a little apprehensive but I really want to go…
Looking forward to your thoughts! 
I’ve done it, it’s wonderful. That you’re apprehensive tells me you should DEFINITELY do it. Make yourself vulnerable, it’ll be great.
Thanks David! I guess I do need to get out of my comfort zone sometimes…
I would have thought you will be fine , in fact you will probably meet more people on your own than if you went with someone .
Feeling vulnerable is one of my favorite things to stumble into, expected or unexpected, it gives me something to question 
I enjoy throwing myself unprepared into situations that used to seem dire or worry me in some way. Then, once there, relax, destroying every trace of fear. Something I’ve learned for sure is that it’s always okay to be alone ^^ Especially around hundreds of people. “But, won’t you be bored sitting alone here?” my brother asked me once, I replied “Not at all!! I’ll just make friends!” XD Not caring is one of the best things you can do for yourself.
