WTF?! Yoga Podcast

Thanks for another fabulous season, everyone! Today we wrap up the 8 limbs and discuss our summer plans.

We made it! Hello, samadhi! We're discussing the 8th and final limb with Erin Motz of Bad Yogi today!

Almost there! We're talking about the 7th limb today, dhyana, which means meditation. Y'all ready for this?

Woo! We're on the 6th limb, dharana! Let's talk about concentration and how that leads you into meditation.

Today we're diving into pratyahara, the 5th limb of the 8 limbs of yoga! How does one do the pratyahara? We'll tell you alllll about it.

Think you know how to breathe? Wrong! Listen in to learn all about the 4th limb of the 8 limbs of yoga, pranayama. Pranayama is all about manipulating the flow of energy. How do we do that? We breeeeaaaathe.

We're back in the studio (figuratively speaking) with Erin Motz of Bad Yogi to talk about the third limb of Patanjali's 8 Limbs: Asana! Asana is the physical practice of yoga, and it's most people's gateway to the rest of yoga.

We're finishing up the second limb of Patanjali's 8 limbs of yoga today: the Niyamas. Today we talk about the last three Niyamas: Tapas, Svadhyaya, and Ishvara Pranidhana. Also, lots more talk about donuts. Deal with it.

The Yamas told us last week how to treat the world. Today we're starting on the second limb of the 8 limbs: the Niyamas, which tell us how to turn inward and treat ourselves. We'll discuss what the 5 Niyamas are, and then we'll talk about the first two: Saucha and Santosha.

Today we finish up this 2-parter! The Yamas are the 1st limb of the 8 Limbs of Yoga. In this episode we cover the last 3 Yamas: Asteya, Brahmacharya, and Aparigraha. Listen in and learn how to be a decent human being!

Whoa! Welcome to the first episode in Season 2, which will be entirely devoted to Patanjali's 8 Limbs! In this episode, we're starting in on the first limb, the Yamas. According to Patanjali, there are 5 Yamas: Ahimsa, Satya, Asteya, Brahmacharya, and Aparigraha. Today, we get into the first two: Ahimsa and Satya.

Season 1 is done, folks! Thank you so much for listening! We spent a few minutes reviewing today and thinking about the future.

It's over already?! Hang out with us for the season 1 finale, in which we cry a little (just kidding), and discuss mudras!

Get yourself a cup of coffee (or tea if you're a better person than we are), put on your thinking beanie, and tune in as we leap even deeper into Patanjali's Yoga Sutras.

Are we dreaming or is this really happening?! This week we interview author and spiritual activist Emma Mildon on spirituality, yoga, and the goddess awakening that's going on right now. Emma was gracious and inspiring, and we are beyond honored to have her on the show!

We're digging even deeper into the yogic texts today with part 2! Let's dive into the Bhagavad Gita, Sutras, and the Hatha Yoga Pradipika.

How many books have you read since school? Ok, now how many of them were deep, dense historical documents that require the concentration of a professional chess player? Never fear. We're here to give you the Cliff Notes. In part 1, we discuss the Rig Veda and the Upanishads.
