Radha, a seasoned yogi and a living testament to the power of these ancient practices, shares her personal experience of navigating the intricacies of life through the lens of integral yoga.

Yoga. Not really a sport, not really a form of exercise, more just a series of contortions and stretches, some of which look easy and some of which look really quite painful. It's fair to say, I've never really got it. But for many it's essential. And testament to this is the number of people who regularly practice it. According to the Economic Times of India there are more than 300 million yogis who have adopted it as part of their lifestyle, 50 percent of whom live in India, and 37 million in the United States alone. Not bad for a bit of stretching. So why? What is it that makes it so alluring? Patanjali, who compiled the definitive text on Yoga – The Yoga Sutras – sometime between 500 BCE and 400 AD (experts can't seem to agree when exactly the great book was written) is quoted as saying: “Yoga is the settling of the mind into silence. When the mind has settled, we are established in our essential nature, which is unbounded consciousness. Our essential nature is usually overshadowed by the activity of the mind.” No mention here of stretches or contortions. But this sounds very much like meditation, like a Jungian exploration of who we are when we strip ourselves – the version of us that we identify with – away. And if you've read any of my books or listened to many episodes of this podcast, you'll know that is partly what I'm exploring in my efforts to discover the secret sauce to living a full, content and peaceful life. Pamela Seelig is this week's guest, and she is a yogi with a great pedigree. Pamela first discovered yoga 25 years ago, when working on Wall Street. She was afflicted with Bell's Palsy, and her doctor encouraged her to try meditation. This eventually led her to yoga, and she went on to practice at the high regarded Integral Yoga Institute in New York. Eventually, in 2009, she set up her own studio, Lotus Mind and Body, and recently published a book with ideas for experienced and novice yogis alike, Threads of Yoga: Themes, Reflections, and Meditation To Weave Into Your Practice.

Swami Ramananda of the Integral Yoga Institute of San Francisco talks with Avi Gordon about adapting to conditions, how compassion follows naturally from meditation, and about what really makes us happy.Quotes from the interview: *I think compassion comes naturally when we touch deep enough inside ourselves. *In a way you could say our identity is a structure in the subconscious mind, and ultimately that structure is built on a faulty foundation, and the foundation has to be replaced, and sometimes the building has to be torn down. *I think any time you start something new there has to be that willingness to be a little uncomfortable, and be with it, in order to get anywhere." *This effort to grow, and change, and improve, and to be of service...ultimately it's what gives us joy. This is what makes us really happy. Swami Ramananda is the President of the Integral Yoga Institute in San Francisco and a greatly respected senior teacher in the Integral Yoga tradition, who has been practicing Yoga for over 35 years. Ramananda offers practical methods of integrating the timeless teachings and practices of yoga into daily life, and transforming the painful aspects of human experience into steps toward realizing one’s full potential.

This past September marked the 15th anniversary since I was in a serious car accident. I was 21. My TBI was so severe, they asked my parents if I wanted to donate my organs (thankfully, Mom said yes). After two months in a coma, and several more using a wheelchair and other rehab devices, I began my struggle to continue on the path I had set forth, without really understanding how much I had changed, that outcomes ultimately were not in my control... Yoga has helped me develop the emotional strength and flexibility to accept the uncertainty, while showing me the love and support I need remains within. I began my “yoga journey” about six years ago, when I began taking yoga classes regularly. I didn’t realize it then, but I had found a way to reconnect to my “damaged” body and brain in a positive way. Years later, in my teacher training at Integral Yoga Institute, I learned the absolute necessity of self love and acceptance. When we sincerely accept ourselves as we are right NOW, we can more fully nurture, accept, and love others. Acceptance starts with love, and love is what we really are. In my life, yoga is the ideal way to connect to this. This “LoveYourBrain Accept, Love, Support” meditation is a conglomeration of ideas I’ve picked up from my many teachers along the way. I thank them for their gifts, and I thank you for your willingness.

Useful readings include the Bhagavad Gita, the Yoga Sutras, and any of the works of archetypal psychologists James Hillman and Thomas Moore — but no readings are necessary or assumed. Michael gave this presentation at the Integral Yoga Institute in San Francisco.
