Ram Giri Baba aka Randall O'Leary is the founder & director of Swara Yoga Academy. In 2006, after many years studying with his Guru in India, Randall was initiated into the ancient Indian spiritual order of Sadhus and is honoured to share many unique tools from his sacred tradition.On this episode we discuss Randall's entry in to Yoga. The power of physical practice & how important it is to build proper foundations in both life & Yoga. We touch on the nature of Yogi's, who are traditionally "serious rebels". How nothing is off limits when it comes to expanding consciousness. The importance of humility & staying open & curious. Randall gives some great advice to anyone who wants to improve the deeper layers of their being. Please enjoy this wide ranging & free flowing conversation.Randall’s Wisdom from this talk: Advice: Begin with the physical practice.Becoming aware of fragmented energy & learn how to redirect the mental energy towards things in life that are important.Patience: Take a step by step approach to life & to Yoga. Don’t rush it. Make it smooth - make it beautiful.Keep exploring, keep engaging with the practice & it will keep opening.There is room for everyone in Yoga. It’s a sanctuary for everyone. Make it yours.Yogi’s are traditionally serious rebels. Willing to do almost anything to expand themselves & explore.The teacher is there for the student. The teacher is there as a guide to help you find your flow.Yoga is what’s called a Vidya, which means a “timeless knowledge”. It will keep bubbling away in many forms as the ancient tradition of Yoga evolves.Yoga is strong. It can make you as easily as it can break you. Perhaps more easily.The essence of our life force is the breath. Prana or breath is a fundamental part of Yoga & life, make a practice of it.Find a teacher that resonates with you. Perhaps if you are a man, seek a male teacher. Keep going & accept where you are on the path. Over time if Yoga is practiced correctly it will transform the deeper layers of the practitioner. Accept where you are & keep going.Randall’s Upcoming Courses & Offerings:Foundations of Swara Yoga 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Traininghttps://swarayogaacademy.com/200-hour-yoga-teacher-training/ EXPLORE THE MYSTICAL WORLD OF BREATH AND YOGA ENERGETICShttps://swarayogaacademy.com/pranayama-yoga-teacher-training/ About Randall O'Leary:Founder and Director of Swara yogaRandall has been a dedicated explorer of Yoga since 1991.

Inspired through his studies of Tai Qi and Viniyoga, Randall shares his unique approach to Pranayama, which he called Swara Yoga. This system gradually deepens into Advanced Pranayama sequences which allow his students access to a comprehensive, embodied understanding of the infinite power within the breath. Randall’s classes are enriched with philosophy stemming from his studies of Hatha Yoga, Tantra, Ayurveda & Indian Mysticism, and are balanced by his unapologetically playful nature and love for Reggae music.In 2006, after many years studying with his Guru in India, Randall was initiated into the ancient Indian spiritual order of Sadhus and is honoured to share many unique tools from his sacred tradition.It is his aim to inspire every student to pursue a practice that is overflowing with energy and joy, that spills out into their world and transforms their relationship with life itself.Find out more about Randall’s offerings at www.swarayogaacademy.comShow Notes/Links :Randall O'Leary - www.swarayogaacademy.comSwara Yoga Academy on Instagram This episode is brought to you by the Yoga Brotherhood - www.yogabrotherhood.netRecorded on site at the Yoga Barn in Ubud - www.theyogabarn.com

Alexandria Crow is a fearless woman. During her first yoga teacher training, she recognized how the teachings of yoga and spiritual texts could combine in a beautifully meaningful way. She learned about presence and how one's thoughts do not reflect one's true self. These revelations and her yoga practice transformed her life completely. I cannot wait to share this conversation with you. Alexandria is an incredible teacher and someone I really look up to. If you find yourself inspired too, send me a note or leave a comment below. Radically Curious Alexandria Crow Getting injured by doing moves that she was told were safe and healing Questioning age-old practices of yoga teaching and starting new conversations Looking into continuing education solutions that aren't about fancy tricks Adjusting classic yoga modalities to fit her students' western way of being Covering topics in her class instead of sequences Radically Inspired Clarity Open your eyes. There is big change in the yoga industry. Let's talk about it and do something about it as a collective. The things were taught about health and fitness might not be right for us as individuals. We need to make changes to keep our bodies safe. Culture meets topic and morphs it. At what point does the morphing move the topic so that it doesn't serve the same purpose? Alexandria Crow Answers… Why is it important to have connection to lineage as a yogi? Can we go back to the way that yoga was originally meant to be taught? What's the difference between a yoga teacher and a yoga instructor? What are you doing in your life to maintain balance? Radically Loved Quotes “We as yoga teachers only know, ‘this is what seems to have worked', but we've never tried to do things in a new way.” “Yoga is a way of seeing life. It is a self-study practice that's guiding you toward what is at any given moment.” “I don't like being called an instructor, I like being called a teacher.” “The sutras are actually saying the body is a problem and we need to transcend it. It's not mentioned that that's changed and said, ‘No, let's be here now.'” A Little More About Our Guest Alexandria Crow's yoga experience has been about transformation. The physical challenges of yoga provided a natural familiarity for the former competitive gymnast, while the philosophy of yoga has given her tools she uses to approach life with a fearless attitude. Alex shares her personal experience of the transformative nature of yoga with her students. Her approach to teaching stems from her belief that the practice is for everyone. She guides her students step by step through creative sequences providing all of the components needed for each individual to feel successful. She encourages her students to challenge themselves while focusing on staying conscious of their body's strengths and limits and making good decisions based on the present moment. Alex's emphasis on paying attention allows her students to create true change and growth, something they can take with them into their daily lives. Alex completed extensive training starting with the YogaWorks 200-Hour Certification Program, followed by a lengthy one-on-one apprenticeship with James Brown (former lead teacher trainer for YogaWorks and founder of American Yoga School) over the course of almost 1,000 studio and classroom hours. Since 2010, she has been leading 200 and 300-Hour Teacher Trainings in Santa Monica, CA, and various cities around the United States.
