How is it that we can feel unhappy when we see someone else happy? And what does that reveal about the condition of our mind and heart? In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore envy through Shakespeare's words, Patrick Henry's warning, and Aghāsura's jealousy in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.12.   They discuss why resentment is a form of spiritual self-sabotage, how bhakti transforms envy into empathy, and why the cowherd boys' simple joy surpasses even the achievements of the greatest yogis.   Highlights include: • Shakespeare on envy: “O, how bitter…” • Patrick Henry's verdict: jealousy = the only vice with no pleasure • Aghāsura as cruelty and violence fueled by envy • Why fame is fickle, and why validation addiction cripples meditation • Snapshots of Vrindavan's joy: bugles, lunch bags, peacock feathers, and even sacred “sadness”   A lively mix of scripture, reflection, and humor—designed to help us see envy for what it is and train the heart toward genuine joy in others' happiness.

Sometimes, on occasions that are getting rarer and rarer, Instagram can be a place of great discoveries, and Becky Barnicoat was one of those for me. A cartoonist published by The New Yorker, Grazia, The New Statesman, The Guardian, BuzzFeed, New York Magazine, Private Eye and Netflix, she had recently published her deeply funny and touching graphic memoir “Cry When the Baby Cries”. For years, her observations of daily life and motherhood made me burst out laughing (often when I needed it the most). So join me as I finally get to laugh together with Becky! Hear her inspiring story about becoming a succesful cartoonist after years of hearing she wasn't good enough, and was dreaming of a job that didn't exist. And learn wise lessons from her and her mom Catherina about motherhood being a source the fulfilment, about creating a warm home through routine and light, about teaching our duaghters through our stories, and breaking generational cycles.

Sally shares her inspiring journey from dance and theater to yoga instruction, highlighting how yoga and running have shaped her life. The conversation covers the welcoming spirit of The Yoga Effect studio, its diverse classes, and the importance of community in Grayslake. Fun rapid-fire questions reveal Sally's personality, while local sponsors and events reinforce the hometown feel. Listeners are invited to try a free yoga class and discover the benefits of mindfulness, movement, and connection in Grayslake. The True Essence of Yoga: Beyond the Poses Sally Gill's journey with yoga began not with the physical postures, but with meditation and breathwork—tools she used to manage performance anxiety as a young dancer. This foundation shaped her understanding of yoga as a holistic practice. Key Insights: Yoga is an Eight-Limbed Path: While most people associate yoga with physical poses (asanas), Sally emphasizes that yoga encompasses eight elements, including ethical principles, breath control (pranayama), and meditation (dhyana). Actionable Tip: Explore breathwork and meditation alongside physical practice. Even a few minutes of mindful breathing can reduce stress and improve focus. Stillness is Powerful: The most challenging pose, according to Sally, is often shavasana (final relaxation). Lying still and being present is where true transformation happens. Actionable Tip: Don't skip shavasana! Allow yourself time at the end of each practice to rest and absorb the benefits. Yoga Sparks Creativity: Sally finds her best ideas come during moments of stillness, especially in shavasana. Actionable Tip: Use your yoga practice as a space for creative reflection. Keep a journal nearby to capture insights that arise. Yoga for Everyone: Breaking Down Barriers A recurring theme in the episode is the inclusivity of yoga. Sally is passionate about dispelling the myth that yoga is only for the flexible or physically adept. Key Insights: Yoga is for All Ages, Genders, and Abilities: The Yoga Effect welcomes everyone, regardless of experience or physical condition. Actionable Tip: If you're new or hesitant, start with a gentle or restorative class. These are designed to be accessible and supportive. Men in Yoga: While 70% of students are women, men are increasingly discovering the benefits, especially in restorative classes. Actionable Tip: Men: Try a restorative or gentle class. You might be surprised by the mental and physical benefits. No Need for Perfection: Yoga is about presence, not performance. Actionable Tip: Focus on how you feel, not how you look. Progress in yoga is measured by increased awareness and comfort, not by achieving advanced poses. Building Community Through Yoga The Yoga Effect is more than a studio—it's a hub for connection and support in Grayslake. Key Insights: A Welcoming Space: The studio's recent move to a larger, more accessible location reflects its commitment to serving the community. Actionable Tip: Engage with your local studio's events and social media. Community is built both inside and outside the classroom. Long-Term Relationships: Many students have practiced at The Yoga Effect since its founding, forming deep friendships and support networks. Actionable Tip: Attend workshops, retreats, or social events to deepen your connections. Supporting Local Businesses: The podcast highlights the interconnectedness of Grayslake's business community, from yoga studios to real estate agents and legal services. Actionable Tip: Support local businesses and participate in community events to foster a sense of belonging. Yoga and Running: A Powerful Partnership Sally's passion for running complements her yoga practice, illustrating how the two disciplines support each other. Key Insights: Running as Moving Meditation: For Sally, running is a form of meditation, offering clarity and presence. Actionable Tip: Try mindful running: focus on your breath and surroundings rather than speed or distance. Yoga for Runners: Yoga helps runners with flexibility, injury prevention, and recovery. Actionable Tip: Incorporate yoga stretches before and after runs. Attend yoga classes designed for athletes. Endurance and Willpower: Sally's experience with long-distance running underscores the mental strength developed through both yoga and running. Actionable Tip: Use yoga to build resilience and mental fortitude, skills that translate to all areas of life. Retreats, Workshops, and Lifelong Learning The Yoga Effect offers more than regular classes—it's a center for growth and exploration. Key Insights: Diverse Offerings: With 23–25 classes weekly and 15 teachers, there's something for every schedule and interest. Actionable Tip: Explore different class styles to find what resonates with you. Retreats and Workshops: Retreats combine yoga, meditation, journaling, and mindful eating, often inspired by longevity hotspots like Italy's Blue Zones. Actionable Tip: Attend a retreat or workshop to deepen your practice and connect with others. Continuing Education: Even experienced teachers benefit from learning and practicing with others. Actionable Tip: Stay curious. Take classes from different instructors and seek out new learning opportunities. Actionable Tips for Yoga Beginners Sally offers practical advice for those new to yoga or considering their first class. Step-by-Step Guide: Start with Gentle or Beginner Classes: Restorative yoga can be challenging for absolute beginners; gentle classes offer a supportive introduction. Use Props: Don't hesitate to use blocks, straps, or bolsters. They make poses more accessible and comfortable. Focus on Breath: Breathwork is foundational. Practice simple breathing exercises to calm the mind and body. Be Patient with Yourself: Progress takes time. Celebrate small victories and listen to your body. Take Advantage of Free Offers: The Yoga Effect offers a free first class—sign up online or email Sally directly (sally@theyogaeffect.com) and mention the podcast for your complimentary session. Prioritize Consistency Over Intensity: Regular practice, even if brief, is more beneficial than occasional intense sessions. Embracing Change and Finding Your Path Sally's story is a testament to resilience and the unexpected gifts of change. Key Insights: Turning Setbacks into Opportunities: Losing her corporate job at 40 was devastating, but it opened the door to a more fulfilling life teaching yoga and theater arts. Living Authentically: Sally's journey underscores the importance of aligning your work with your values and passions. Advice for Life's Crossroads: When faced with change, look for the hidden opportunities. Trust that new paths can lead to greater fulfillment. The Grayslake Spirit: Local Businesses and Community The episode is woven with shout-outs to Grayslake's vibrant business community, from physical therapy centers to local breweries and the farmer's market. Key Insights: Community Support: Local businesses, like The Yoga Effect, play a vital role in revitalizing and sustaining the town's spirit. Events and Engagement: Participating in local events, such as the farmer's market or bingo night, strengthens community bonds. Resource Sharing: The podcast's sponsors and guests highlight the value of sharing resources and supporting one another. Final Thoughts: Taking the First Step Yoga is self-care, community, and a path to personal growth. Sally Gill's story and The Yoga Effect's mission remind us that it's never too late to start, and that everyone—regardless of background or ability—can benefit from yoga.

“Mateship is essentially a code of conduct that embodies friendship, equality, solidarity, and it's often forged in adversity.” “We all have something to give one another.” “Be generous with your time when you can.”   Episode summary | In this episode of the Return on Generosity podcast, host Shannon Cassidy speaks with Shayna Goodworth, a yoga teacher and community builder, about the importance of generosity in both personal and professional settings. Shayna shares her journey from Australia to the United States, her understanding of mateship, and how she fosters community through her initiative, Seagulls. The conversation delves into the healing power of the ocean, the significance of connection, and practical ways to be generous in our daily lives. Shayna emphasizes that generosity is not just about financial giving but about investing time and creating meaningful relationships.   R.O.G. Takeaway Tips | We grow when we give. Generosity is about being of service. Mateship is a code of conduct that embodies friendship and equality. Creating community is essential for combating loneliness. Time is the most precious resource we have. The ocean has profound healing effects on our well-being. Mindfulness is about being aware of what's going on around us. We all have something to give one another. Home is where you make it, and it's in your heart. Meditation is a crucial part of personal wellness.  Chapters |  00:00 Introduction to Generosity and Community 02:53 Shayna's Journey: From Australia to North Carolina 06:02 Understanding Mateship: Building Connections at Work 09:01 The Mateship Pyramid: Social Connections and Loneliness 12:13 Practical Ways to Be a Good Mate 14:53 Generosity in the Workplace: Personal Experiences 17:47 Seagulls Community: Women, Ocean, and Connection 22:06 Space Holding as Generous Leadership 24:52 Balancing Care for Others and Self-Care 28:05 Lessons from the Ocean: Healing and Growth 31:00 Rapid Fire Questions: Insights and Reflections   Guest Bio | Shayna Goodworth has been a student of yoga since 2012 and to deepen her practice, she took part in a RYT200 hour program in the United Kingdom in 2021 and is passionate about Vinyasa, Yin & Trauma Informed styles of yoga along with meditation as a way to heal the body. Yoga is integral in her daily life and she is currently Longwave's Yoga resident SeaGal facilitator, devoted to fostering community through a shared connection with the ocean.    Raised on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Australia, her spiritual path began early through learning about the local environment and waterways. This instilled in Shayna a profound respect for nature and the power of place-based connection. Her vision for SeaGals at Longwave and Wrightsville Beach is rooted in this philosophy: to cultivate meaningful bonds among women and create space to ground, reflect, and honor ourselves in unity. Or simply, her mission is centered around Ocean, Women & Community. These three pillars have helped Shayna inform and hone her leadership styles of inclusion, authenticity and humility and she enters her first year as a 30 year old.   Guest Resources:  Find Seagals at https://longwaveyoga.com/schedule  Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/longwaveyoga/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/plasticoceanproject.inc/ A Different Kind of Power by Jacinda Ardern Figuring out Thirty by Bridget Hustwaite Blue Mind by Wallace J.

When debate turnsviolent, yogis reach for higher tools—not more gasoline. In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha reflect on the rising culture of outrage and political violence, using the recent assassination of Charlie Kirk as a moment to pause and ask: how can we disagree without dehumanizing? Drawing from Śrī Caitanya's example of gentle but powerful debate, and the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam's accounts of Krishna's childhood pastimes, they explore practical bhakti principles that can steady the heart even when the world feels unstable. Key Highlights * The provocateur trap: why inflammatory speech breeds more chaos * Five takeaways for disagreeing without division * Respectful courage vs. performative outrage * Debate as Lord Caitanya modeled it: correction without humiliation * Krishna's butter-boy pastimes as an anchor of joy amid chaos If you're tired of the outrage algorithm but still care deeply about truth, this conversation offers a better toolkit—one rooted in bhakti.

In this week's episode, Natalie and Adrienne interview Beth. From dance major to yoga mat, Beth's path hasn't been easy. She speaks candidly about her past struggles and how Yoga became a lifeline, teaching her resilience, patience, and the beauty of simply showing up. She reveals how the quiet law of observation, and the connections built through practice, can carry us through even the hardest seasons of life. Beth's story is a reminder that Yoga mirrors life itself: resilience grows when we stay present, compassion blooms when we stay connected, and freedom is found when we allow things to simply unfold.Click here to follow Beth on InstagramSend us a textWanna be on the show?

In this episode, we have a brand new meditation on acceptance and accepting the present moment as it is. One of the most powerful lessons we can learn is that accepting the moment and our life as it is right now, is the quickest way to finding gratitude.

When debate turnsviolent, yogis reach for higher tools—not more gasoline. In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha reflect on the rising culture of outrage and political violence, using the recent assassination of Charlie Kirk as a moment to pause and ask: how can we disagree without dehumanizing? Drawing from Śrī Caitanya's example of gentle but powerful debate, and the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam's accounts of Krishna's childhood pastimes, they explore practical bhakti principles that can steady the heart even when the world feels unstable. Key Highlights * The provocateur trap: why inflammatory speech breeds more chaos * Five takeaways for disagreeing without division * Respectful courage vs. performative outrage * Debate as Lord Caitanya modeled it: correction without humiliation * Krishna's butter-boy pastimes as an anchor of joy amid chaos If you're tired of the outrage algorithm but still care deeply about truth, this conversation offers a better toolkit—one rooted in bhakti.

NA'ALEH YOGA: Nidra Journeys for Deep Rest+ Close Your Eyes and Stay Awake...   This soothing meditation is designed to awaken compassion within yourself and for the world around you during the Elul and Tishrei in the Jewish calendar. This healing rest journey is specifically created for the days leading up to the high holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.  This session invites you to lie down in a comfortable space and connect deeply with your breath, encouraging relaxation and introspection. Drawing inspiration from Rabbi Avraham Joshua Heschel's teachings, this practice encourages you to release judgment and embrace a state of compassionate witnessing. Throughout the practice, you'll journey through the five gateways of consciousness, culminating in a transcendent experience of unity in the field of compassion. This episode offers a chance to plant an intention-- a special kavanah-- and let it resonate deeply within you.  Listen in and allow yourself to be enveloped in the warmth of compassion. Episode Summary: Here's what you can expect: Preparation: Begin by settling into a comfortable position. Make sure you're fully supported completely at ease, ready to embark on this journey of introspection and spiritual awareness.  Intention Setting: You will be guided to set a powerful Sankalpa/kavanah (intention) for this practice. Choose a meaningful, positive "I am..." statement that resonates with your heart and soul, reflecting your life's orienting resolve and deepest truth. Rotation of Consciousness: Experience a thorough body scan by focusing on each part of your body to rotate your consciousness into a state of deep healing rest.  Breath Awareness: Practice guided breathwork to connect with your compassionate heart Visualization:  Rest in deep awareness experiencing vivid guided imagery Return to Your Intention: Reconnect with the intention you set earlier. Let it sink deeply into your being and guide you towards spiritual elevation and self-realization. Externalization: Gently transition back to your ordinary waking state, bringing with you the tranquility and insights gained from this practice. Reconnect with your surroundings to integrate the peace and clarity into your daily life and embrace the essence of this season.  Background Music:  "The Inner Calling" from Music of Wisdom by Narek Mirzaei   Subscribe to Na'aleh Yoga for more meditative Yoga Nidra journeys and transformative experiences.

For many of us, “the hustle” has become a way of life. Long hours, endless responsibilities, and the constant pressure to do more often come at a cost—our health. Few people know this better than Umashnee Naidoo, who faced the heavy toll of burnout, weight gain, and depression before transforming her life through holistic healing. From Burnout to Breakdown Like so many professionals, Umashnee poured herself into her work. On the outside, she was driven and successful. But inside, the stress of hustle culture was taking its toll. The result was emotional exhaustion, severe depression, and a body carrying 60 extra pounds of weight. It wasn't just about how she looked—it was about how she felt. Every day became a struggle. Choosing a Different Path Umashnee realized that if she didn't make a change, she risked losing more than her health—she risked losing herself. That realization led her to embrace holistic health practices: yoga, meditation, and energy medicine. These weren't quick fixes, but powerful tools that helped her reconnect to her body, calm her mind, and begin the journey of true healing. Through consistency and self-discovery, Umashnee not only shed 60 pounds but also regained her joy, energy, and sense of purpose. Her story is proof that sustainable transformation happens when you address both the mind and the body. The Power of Mind-Body Healing What makes Umashnee's journey so impactful is her focus on the whole person. She learned that depression, weight gain, and burnout are often symptoms of deeper imbalances. By aligning her nutrition, movement, and mindset with her values, she was able to heal from the inside out. Today, she shares her knowledge and experience to help others reclaim their health and happiness. Her story is a reminder that true wellness isn't just about losing weight or following a diet—it's about creating harmony in your life. Lessons for All of Us There are three key takeaways from Umashnee's journey that anyone can apply: Listen to your body. Fatigue, stress, and weight gain are signals, not just inconveniences. Prioritize mental health. Depression and burnout require attention, compassion, and care—not silence. Small, consistent changes matter. Yoga, meditation, and mindful eating create long-term transformation when practiced regularly. Connect with Umashnee If you're ready to step off the treadmill of hustle culture and into a healthier, more balanced life, you'll find Umashnee's work inspiring and practical.

In this insightful episode of the Yoga Inspiration Podcast, Kino MacGregor sits down with longtime Ashtanga practitioner and teacher Wade Oakley to explore the intersection of traditional yoga practice and modern strength training. Wade shares how an early shoulder injury led him to Ashtanga Yoga at the University of Virginia, and how his journey quickly took him to India to study with Sharath Jois. He reflects on practicing in Mysore, balancing academic research with daily sadhana, and what it means to approach yoga with both a beginner's heart and a scholar's mind. The conversation dives into Wade's personal evolution, from golf and weightlifting to yoga, from serious injury and reconstructive surgery to rehabilitation and “prehab” strategies that sustain long term practice. Together, Kino and Wade discuss the sometimes controversial topic of cross training, highlighting how mobility, strength, and yoga can complement each other for healthier movement and more sustainable teaching. Listeners will gain practical insights on the difference between flexibility and mobility, the physical demands of assisting in Mysore style classes, and how weight training can protect hypermobile bodies while deepening the yoga journey. Whether you are an Ashtanga student, a yoga teacher navigating injuries, or a practitioner curious about integrating gym training with yoga, this episode offers inspiration and practical wisdom for building a supported practice. Highlights from the episode Wade's first encounter with Ashtanga Yoga and his early teachers Stories from his first trips to Mysore and practicing with Sharath Jois Recovering from major knee surgery through physical therapy and yoga The difference between flexibility and mobility How gym training can support safe assists and prevent injury Strategies for bridging yoga, strength training, and long term practice Practice with Kino and Wade on Omstars.com Practice LIVE with me on Omstars!

In this episode I am once again joined by Alex W, long term practitioner of Zen, Pragmatic Dharma, and Western Occultism. Alex explains how to meditate after awakening; details the path to success in Zen, Mahāmudrā, and Dzogchen; and compares Taoist Inner Alchemy to cultivating the enjoyment body, Saṃbhogakāya. Alex reflects on the biases of the Buddhist tradition, summarises the phases of his own meditation development, and differentiates constructive and deconstructive modes of practice. Alex also reveals the purpose of the 6 Yogas of Naropa, warns about the dangers of advanced meditation techniques, and considers whether greater political engagement is a result of spiritual maturity. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep324-how-to-practice-after-awakening-alex-w-2 Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'.

Episode Overview:In this deeply heartfelt episode, Amy sits down with Tra Kirkpatrick, an experienced yoga therapist and transformational coach, for a courageous and honest exploration of body image, self-worth, and the lifelong process of self-discovery.Tra shares her personal journey—from being placed on a diet at age 9 to discovering yoga in the late 1990s—and how her practice helped her separate external labels from internal truth. This episode is a compassionate guide for anyone who has ever felt disconnected from their body or confused about where to begin healing.This is not a conversation about weight loss. Instead, it is an invitation to redefine the relationship we have with our bodies, to unpack the emotional and cultural baggage we carry, and to use the tools of yoga therapy, coaching, and discernment (viveka) to find greater ease, vitality, and self-acceptance.Topics We Explore:Tra's early experiences with weight stigma, medicalized body shame, and generational body narrativesHow yoga offered a path from self-rejection to self-awarenessThe evolution from body neutrality to body sovereigntyWhy core values are foundational for meaningful behavior changeHow cultural conditioning, social media, and family systems shape our internalized self-imageThe distinction between external identity and internal compassHow to assess whether your behaviors align with your values using tools like the Wheel of LifeWhy affirmations didn't work for Tra—and how she found more authentic language to support changeUnderstanding the inner critic through the lens of ahiṃsā (non-harming)The role of discernment in resisting industry-driven narratives about beauty and worthYoga therapy as a modality that respects the unique journey of each clientTra's Signature Offering:“Waitlist: Let Go and Get Lighter” An 8-week online program that helps participants identify and release the internal and external weight—mental, emotional, physical—that keeps them stuck. The program is not about dieting or physical aesthetics but rather freedom, vitality, and reclaiming your life.  Program launching again later this year.

It's something to feel at home in.” – Amy Wheeler“You are the only one writing the story of your life.” – Tra Kirkpatrick“Even if we don't know the full context, yoga gives us the space to ask: What else could be true?” – Tra KirkpatrickMentioned in This Episode:Yoga therapy tools: ahiṃsā (non-harming), svādhyāya (self-study), viveka (discernment)Wheel of Life assessment for value-based decision makingJennifer Kreatsoulas, author of The Courageous Path to Healing and Body Mindful YogaDiscussion of guṇa imbalance and body image:Vāta: restlessness, insecurity, over-exercisingPitta: perfectionism, body control, critical self-talkKapha: stagnation, shame, hopelessnessTakeaways:Body image is not just physical—it's emotional, social, and spiritual.You don't need to love your body to begin healing. Sometimes neutrality or sovereignty is enough.Core values can be your guideposts when the inner critic is loud.Small, consistent steps—not grand transformations—make the biggest difference over time.Yoga therapy allows us to start from exactly where we are, with compassion and curiosity.Stay Connected:Amy Wheeler: www.amywheeler.com | IG: @amywheelerphdTra Kirkpatrick: www.trakirkpatrick.comThe Yoga Therapy Hour Podcast: Subscribe & leave us a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!To join Amy's mailing list and receive free resources, go to TheOptimalState.com

Are you ready to move beyond the Kegel?I was.About 20 years ago I had some serious issues going on with my pelvis and pelvic floor. One of those issues was sciatica.I'd have these bouts of crippling pain that would land me on my back for days.At the time I was a Pilates teacher and Yoga teacher and the tools I was teaching gave me no relief. The Kegel wasn't working either.What did help and eventually open up a whole new way of being in my body was sensual movement. In this episode I share:How I stumbled upon the healing power of sensual movement via a Victoria's Secret catalogThree incredible benefits to starting a sensual movement practiceHow to beginLet's dive in!Download a Sacred Sensual Movement playlist on SpotifyAccess my robust free sensual resources in The Goddess Vault.Watch the trailer for Strip Down Rise Up the Netflix doc on Shelia Kelly's work

In this episode, we have a brand new meditation for self control. Biting our tongue, losing our temper, controlling our unproductive outbursts. Those are all very real obstacles we have in today's world. We hope this episode helps provide some perspective when you are struggling.

Rules Americans Ditch On VacationHalf (49%) of respondents intentionally avoid reading work emails when traveling and 59% skip normal to-dos, like working out and tidying up.Two-thirds say they eat out for every single meal and 23% have dessert with every meal on a trip.54% admit they rarely stick to a budget on a getaway, and 48% confess to using credit cards more than usual. Nearly two-thirds (63%) believe that returning texts or calls is completely optional in non-emergency situations and 33% admit they ignore texts and emails altogether.A big part of the vacation mindset is saying “yes” more often, as 82% say traveling is a time to embrace the extras, from dessert to new adventures.“Treat yourself” is the top vacation motto for 41% who say it describes their approach to time off, while others relate to “Try everything once,” (18%) and “No alarms, no plans” (12%).Favorite parts of traveling include sleeping in (42%), forgetting what day of the week it is (36%) and wearing comfy clothes 24/7 (30%).And the best part? Nearly three-quarters (72%) say they don't feel guilty at all about overindulging on vacation.Gen Z RegretsThese are the trends that make the over 35 crowd yell “What are you guys thinking?!”"Dubai chocolate. It is $$$, and maybe it's just me, but it does not look appealing to me at all.""Giant pants. People are wearing jeans that could fit a family of three in each leg hole...why? They also often wear them with a t-shirt that's two sizes too small. It's so goofy looking!""In the past few years, I've noticed there is no shame anymore. It's 'cool' and 'funny' to make a fool of yourself for views. Stop pranking employees who are just trying to work, stop making a mess at Walmart to be funny, stop singing and dancing in public while filming yourself, etc. I refuse to watch any creator that pulls that sh*t.""Labubus. They're just Beanie Babies.""Mullets. Like, I get the irony standpoint, but no, they're genuinely fashionable and attractive right now, and that confounds the hell out of me."These Sleep Hacks Sound A Bit Wild, But People Swear They WorkRedditors are here to help share their best sleep hacks. Some may sound weird, but they supposedly work!"Relax your toes, relax your ankles, follow all body parts...By the time you reach your forehead you're asleep.""Reading something boring. The minute I start, I fall asleep. Also having a cold room.""World building! I like to just imagine the same fantasy world of my own every night. I go over every little detail until I fall asleep! It works wonders — you just keep making new rules or places!""I listen to something boring! On Spotify, there is a podcast called ‘I Can't Sleep'. It's a guy who reads Wikipedia pages on various topics. His voice is quite relaxing and puts me out every time. 10/10 Highly recommend!""I use a red color filter on my phone screen (if I do scroll before bed).""Do a pose called legs up the wall. It's exactly how it sounds, but Google it if you're not familiar. Try 5-10 minutes. It'll reset your nervous system and help make ya sleepy.""Straw breathing works wonderfully for me. 10 breaths with a very slow exhale is good. Yoga nidra works as well.""I take a piece of paper and write the word sleep over and over, usually about a half page. If you wanna try it, just take your time, and if it turns into other writings, just let it flow...and hopefully it's calming to your mind."Second Date UpdateRosa called us about Miguel. They matched on Hinge and went out for dinner in Walnut Creek.  Rosa said they split calamari, ordered pasta, and lingered over dessert because the conversation was going so well. She thought Miguel was funny and attentive, and she couldn't figure out why he ghosted.

Raghunath and Kaustubha explore how the pinnacle of Vedānta and yoga is revealed in the simplest exchange: Mother Yaśodā calling little Kṛṣṇa home for dinner. They unpack why quality of love matters more than quantity of achievement, and why “do small things with great love” isn't just a sweet saying—it's the key to real growth. Drawing from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.11), Mother Teresa, Lord Rāma's squirrel story, and reflections from Scottie Scheffler, the world's #1-ranked golfer, they reveal how fleeting victories fade while love endures. From cows and calves to the defeat of Bakasura, this episode shows that even the smallest offerings—when infused with devotion—hold infinite meaning. Tune in as Wisdom of the Sages uncovers how unselfish love, not spectacle or complexity, delivers the deepest fulfillment and the truest yoga.
