In this episode, Kylee and Zoë explore the complicated history that humans have with alcohol and athletics. We dive into the deep past (shoutout to our simian ancestors!) and see why scientists think humans developed a taste for something that seems counterproductive to passing on our genes (looking at you, Smirnoff blue raspberry). We try to parse out why alcohol is so closely tied to endurance sports and take a deep dive into what the research says about this substance (spoiler alert: three shots of whiskey do NOT make you better at running on a treadmill.)

In this podcast episode, Carroll Ann Friedmann shares the story behind her book "Practicing the Yoga Sutras," which stemmed from a decade-long journey of chanting and studying the sutras. Friedmann recounts her initial inspiration in India, where she was taught the art of chanting. This practice continued back home in Charlottesville, where she formed a dedicated chanting group with her students. Through regular discussions and deep exploration of the sutras, Friedmann began documenting her insights, writing consistently each morning for several years. The conversation highlights the organic development of her book, the discipline required for such a long-term project, and the profound impact of yoga on personal growth and community building.--Carroll Ann (Prashanti) Friedmann, BA, MDiv, E-RYT500, was educated at Vanderbilt University, Princeton Theological Seminary, and the University of Virginia. From 2007–2012, she received Yoga training at the Integral Yoga Academy at Satchidananda Ashram–Yogaville (Buckingham, Virginia). From 2013–present she has studied at the K. Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga Institute with Saraswathi Jois and the Anantha Research Foundation with Dr. M. A. Jayashree and Sri M. A. Narasimhan in Mysore, Karnataka, India.She currently studies and practices Yoga under the guidance of Richard Freeman, MaryTaylor, Ty Landrum, and other classical teachers. She and her husband, Liam Buckley, are devotees of Sri Swami Satchidananda. They have four adult children and live in Charlottesville, Virginia, where they own and direct Ashtanga Yoga Charlottesville and the Ivy Yoga School. They teach asana, pranayama, meditation, chanting, philosophy, and hold an annual Yoga teacher training.To find out more and order a copy of "Practicing the Yoga Sutras," you can visit Carroll's website: practicingtheyogasutras.com Hosted on Acast.

This week, our Featured State is New York. Plenty of great rock acts hail from the Empire State! Next week, we'll take a look at the Sunshine State of Florida. Enjoy!

Practicing the Yoga Sutras by Carroll Ann Friedmann combines clear explanations of The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali with prompts for personal discovery and reflection. The concise instructions and explanations offered by the Yoga Sutras are still powerful and exceedingly valuable for moving toward peace and knowledge of the Self. Practicing the Yoga Sutras also offers space for personal reflections and self-study notes. I recently had the chance to talk to Carroll Ann about her book and practical ways to apply its teachings and The Yoga Sutras to your daily life. She shares insights about specific group of sutras including samyama, abhyasa, and Vairagya and how they can influence our attitudes and behaviors. She also talks about her background as the owner and yoga teacher at Ashtanga Yoga Charlottesville and the Ivy Yoga School. I have had my own personal yoga practice now for close to 11 years and found her insights about yoga and the Yoga Sutras to be practical, ways to enhance my own yoga practice, and deepen my connection to my spiritual Self. One of my favorite parts of the conversation with Carroll Ann is talking about how to deepen your own yoga practices by focusing on the spiritual aspects of yoga. She provides clear explanations of how yoga not only affects us physically, but also on a spiritual and emotional level too.
