What if everything you were taught to fear is actually sacred? In this intimate, resonant conversation, I sit down with Mariana, a dear friend and fellow teacher whose life story continues to unfold in powerful ways. Raised in a strict Catholic school environment in Mexico, Mariana shares how years of religious repression shaped her understanding of sexuality, embodiment, and spirituality and how the practices of Yoga, meditation, and humanistic psychotherapy helped her unravel those beliefs and come home to her own sacred aliveness. This episode is not a theoretical conversation. It is an embodied testimony to the power of Yoga as life itself as Shakti, as descent, as the energy that we are. Together, we question the cultural scripts that pit spirit against flesh, and remember what it means to live in a world where the seen is the source. Subjects Explored Growing up Catholic and the repression of the body Unlearning religious shame through embodied practice How Yoga reunites what doctrine divides The holiness of desire and the wisdom of William Blake Why the feminine can never be denied, only exiled Shakti as the undismissable truth of nature Key Quotes "Shakti is what we are. There's no denying Shakti." "It was as if I had finally placed the needle on the right record, and the music began to play in rhythm with my own heart." "The body is not a shell to the soul. It is the soul." "Religion told me that the closer I was to God, the further I should be from the body. Yoga showed me they were never separate." "The repression of nature is not safety. It's suffering." Key Takeaways Embodied Awakening – True spiritual life begins when we reclaim the body as sacred. Shakti Cannot Be Denied – The feminine principle is life itself—wild, wise, and ever-present. Beyond Duality – Spirit and matter are not in opposition. Yoga reveals their unity. From Shame to Sovereignty – Dismantling internalized doctrine opens the door to freedom. The Holiness of Desire – As William Blake taught, energy is delight. To feel is divine. Intimacy is the Practice – Yoga is not an escape from reality but a deep participation in it.

Dr. David K. Bernard addresses a question frequently raised by Christians navigating modern culture: Is it acceptable for believers to practice yoga or participate in martial arts?Yoga and many martial arts have historical roots in Eastern religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism. Yoga originates from Hindu spiritual practices, while martial arts like kung fu, Muay Thai, and aikido are deeply tied to various non-Christian philosophies.Dr. Bernard explores whether involvement in these practices is compatible with Christian faith and lifestyle. He offers biblical insight, historical context, and practical guidance for believers seeking to honor God in every area of life.Visit PentecostalPublishing.com to shop Dr. Bernard's full catalog of published works.

There's a rising trend of "Christian yoga" practiced by believers and even offered in churches. Christians are embracing Christian yoga workouts and Christian yoga music. But can we truly divorce the spiritual from the physical? Are we inadvertently embracing pagan practices by participating in yoga? Or can we transform the practices into a form of worship to Christ?On Wednesday, we'll delve into the spiritual implications of yoga and Christian yoga flow - and whether renaming it to "Christian yoga" changes its essence. Tune in for an eye-opening conversation!

It's time to shake off winter and get disciplined. For this week's intention, we are going to practice yoga every single day. Roll out your mat, tune into your body, sense your needs, and flow.

Welcome back to another episode of the Heather Namaste Podcast! Thank you so much for tuning in. Today I will be guiding you through a relaxing and nervous system-rejuvenating Yoga Nidra meditation. Yoga Nidra is a form of guided meditation also known as “yogic sleep” or “effortless relaxation”. The practice draws our attention inwards, and we learn to surf between the states of wakefulness and sleep, where our body finds its natural state of equilibrium (homeostasis) – the breath balances and becomes quiet, unconscious and conscious aspects of the mind reveal themselves, and we fall into an innate state of deep, blissful awareness. Anyone can practice Yoga Nidra, but it has immense appeal for those who struggle to let go (I think many of us have ‘battled' through meditation at times!). It also has immense value for those suffering from sleep deprivation, trauma, anxiety, or depression (to any degree). It's also perfect for those who have always been curious about the deep states of meditation they have perhaps read about or stumbled across themselves but have never been able to recreate.  If you love this episode, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

“If one is engaged in the advancement of spiritual knowledge, there will be so many insults and much dishonor from others. This is expected because material nature is so constituted.

Whenever people ask me what studio to check out in Austin, Texas, I always recommend Practice Yoga on the East side. Rey Cardenas is the co-founder of Practice which recently celebrated it's 10 year anniversary. If you follow Rey or Practice on Instagram, you'll see he shares a lot about a unique take on philosophy from Rudolf Steiner, that I haven't seen from other yoga teachers. We talk about: - Rey's journey of co-founding a yoga studio in Austin, Texas, after facing challenges with his previous teaching position. Rey shared his experience of transitioning from being a professional poker player to becoming a yoga teacher and the process of finding a location for his studio. - The process of opening a yoga studio, including finding a vacant building, partnering with someone who had complementary skills, utilizing social media marketing, creating memes(!) and choosing a donation-based model. - Rey's process of finding a more balanced approach to yoga philosophy, moving away from an indulgent sort of philosophy towards a more grounded perspective that Rey found in Rudolf Steiner's work. - How to integrate different perspectives and practices into yoga teachings. They also explored the connection between Western and Eastern spirituality and the importance of awakening the chakras. - Rey gives a great introduction to the teachings of Rudolf Steiner, including his embodiment system, and the importance of the thought realm in human freedom. They also discussed how these concepts can be integrated into yoga and are integrated into the teacher trainings at Practice Yoga in Austin.

Welcome to Episode 146 of the Being Human Podcast: Is it Okay for Catholics to Practice Yoga? Is yoga demonic? Are all types of yoga intrinsically evil or dangerous? Can Catholics do yoga without endangering their soul? This week, Dr. Greg breaks open these questions and more to find answers from the lens of an integrated Catholic perspective while, taking into account both faith and reason.    Discussed in the episode:  The reality that there is no clear teaching on yoga from the Magisterium of the Catholic Church; Why the answer on whether or not Catholics can practice yoga is not as simple as it seems; Common myths and misconceptions related to yoga from a Catholic perspective; The link between Hindu yoga and demonic influence through a first-hand case witnessed by Dr. Greg; The possibility that yoga can be dangerous if built upon certain spiritual influences; The existence of options such as Christian fitness programs (i.e. Pietra Fitness, Soul Core) which integrates physical stretching and exercise with Christian prayer as an alternative to yoga with Hindu foundations.   Resources mentioned or relevant: Past Being Human Episodes: Episode 137: Demonic Real Talk Episode 134: Catholic Mindfulness: Why It's Not Only Okay But Encouraged for Catholics to Practice Find a Christian Fitness Class Near You: https://www.pietrafitness.com/ or https://soulcore.com/;  Download The Integrated App for access to free audio exercises, the Catholic Mindfulness Virtual Retreat, courses, prayer resources, and more;  Need help?

Imagine a room full of preschoolers engaged in an activity. The teacher announces it's Circle Time. This shift from play to stillness takes a lot of effort and skill for these young children. As parents and educators, it is our job to support children in developing these skills and helping them learn how to control both their physical and emotional responses. But how? In this episode of Mindful Conversation with KAY, Kristi and Kelly dive deeper into the concept of opposites to teach self-control and self-regulation in children. They share a variety of games and techniques to implement at home and in the classroom as well as fun and engaging ways to introduce self-regulation tools to children of all ages.
