We continue the conversation about the nature of the Yogic Body, discussing a couple more big picture concepts. Sometimes the Yogic Body is a microcosm of the universe, with winds, planets and moons. We also consider whether the body evolves from the mind or vice versa, which is vital for most practices of yoga. Finally, we discuss the Yogic Body as represented by the life-force centers of the body, like the navel and heart.www.ghoshyoga.orgReferenced: Roots of Yoga by James Mallinson and Mark Singleton

In Professor Eric Cline's books, 1177 BC, the year civilization collapsed and After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations, the Uluburun shipwreck (c. 1300 BC) serves as a microcosm of Late Bronze Age globalization.

What if the most toxic thing in your home isn't a chemical—but a mindset? Clean living advocate and first-time author Lindsay Dahl returns to unpack the nuanced middle ground of wellness, environmental health, and personal agency. Together, we explore the emotional toll of trying to “do it all right,” the dangers of black-and-white thinking in the age of social media, and why real change takes both individual action and systemic accountability. We talk spatulas and seed oils, fast fashion and flame retardants, fear and freedom—and why being a pragmatist in today's digital landscape is both radical and necessary.
